Reverse description Central design depicts a stylized Olympic torch with a flame rising above a mountain silhouette, accompanied by the five-ring Olympic symbol to the right. A diagonal line suggesting motion or a ski slope sweeps across the lower portion of the field, evoking winter athleticism. The legend 'IGRZYSKA' appears along the upper left field and 'XXII·OLIMPIADY' is inscribed across the lower central area, with the word 'PRÓBA' (meaning 'trial' or 'pattern') prominently placed in the exergue, identifying this piece as a trial strike. The composition is rendered in a clean, modernist graphic style characteristic of Polish commemorative coinage of the period.
