Reverse description A large wels catfish (Silurus glanis) is depicted coiled within the central field, its broad, flat head and prominent barbels rendered in naturalistic relief. The fish is surrounded by aquatic vegetation — intertwining roots, reeds, and submerged plant stems — filling the field in an artistic, detailed composition. The engraver's initials AR appear in the lower right portion of the field. The curved legend SUM - Silurus glanis arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, giving both the Polish common name and the scientific binomial of the species.
