Reverse description At center, a finely detailed high-relief portrait of a tawny owl (Strix aluco) is depicted perched on a naturalistic branch, facing the viewer with prominent forward-facing eyes and meticulously rendered feathering across the body and wings. The bird's talons grip the branch, which extends across the lower portion of the field. The legend OCHRONA ŚRODOWISKA (Environmental Protection) arcs around the periphery in two segments, framing the central motif. The word PRÓBA, denoting the trial strike status of the piece, appears in small letters in the lower field beneath the branch. The engraver's initials are present at the lower left, attributing the reverse design to Ewa Tyc-Karpińska.
