| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse reproduces the design of a historic Gdańsk ducat, featuring the city's heraldic arms at center: an oval shield bearing two crosses beneath a royal crown, supported by two rampant lions facing inward. The foundational date '997' appears above the shield, and the anniversary year '1997' is inscribed below, flanked by decorative cartouches and the mintmaster initials. The circular peripheral legend reads 'TYSIĄCLECIE MIASTA GDAŃSKA' (Millennium of the City of Gdańsk), separated by ornamental foliate devices, all enclosed within a beaded border. The mint mark 'mw' appears in the lower field. |

Gdańsk's millennial commemoration in 1996 traced the city's founding to 997 AD, the year Bohemian missionary Adalbert of Prague passed through the settlement — then recorded in chronicles as "Gyddanyzc" — on his way to evangelize the Prussians, a journey that ended with his martyrdom and eventual canonization. The Polish state's claim to that founding date is as much political as historical, anchoring Gdańsk firmly within the narrative of early Piast-dynasty Poland at a moment when post-communist Poland was actively reasserting its historical identity.
The .900 gold series from NBP in this period was struck in low mintages, typically under 3,000 pieces, making most issues genuinely scarce rather than artificially so.
