Reverse description The reverse depicts a naturalistic wetland scene featuring a European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) resting on a partially submerged log above the waterline, with a second turtle visible swimming beneath the surface in the lower field. A clump of tall reeds occupies the right side of the composition, while a cloudy sky fills the upper background, rendered in fine engraved detail. The curved legend ŻÓŁW BŁOTNY - Emys orbicularis arcs along the upper portion of the field, presenting both the Polish common name and the Linnaean binomial of the species. The overall design is executed in a detailed naturalistic style characteristic of the Polish Animals series.
