Obverse description The obverse features the Polish state emblem, a crowned white eagle displayed with wings spread, set against a plain field at center. The legend RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA arcs along the upper periphery, flanked by a beaded border. The date 1994 appears divided across the lower field on either side of the eagle, with the denomination ZL 200000 ZL inscribed below in bold characters. The design follows the standard republican eagle type used on contemporary Polish coinage.

Reverse description The reverse presents a facing bust of King Sigismund I the Old (Zygmunt I Stary), depicted in royal attire with a crown, fur-trimmed mantle, and an ornate cross pendant suspended at his chest. The effigy is rendered in high relief with detailed sculptural modelling. Flanking the bust at left and right are laurel branches, with the regnal dates 1506 and 1548 inscribed at either side above the shoulders. The name ZYGMUNT I STARY is boldly lettered in the lower portion of the field, and the word PRÓBA (trial) appears discreetly within the design, identifying this piece as a pattern strike.
