| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, boldly stylized modernist portrait of astronomer Mikołaj Kopernik (Nicolaus Copernicus) in high relief, facing slightly left with flowing hair rendered in sweeping sculptural lines that extend across much of the field. The engraver Anna Jarnuszkiewicz's distinctive contemporary artistic style gives the effigy a dynamic, almost abstract quality. The inscription MIKOŁAJ KOPERNIK is incuse along the lower rim, while the word PRÓBA (trial/pattern) appears in the upper right field, identifying this as a pattern strike. The overall composition fills the coin's face with the portrait, leaving minimal flat field. |
