| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a stylized speed skater in a low racing crouch, rendered in a dynamic, modernist graphic style that conveys speed and athletic motion. To the upper right of the skater appears the Lake Placid 1980 Winter Olympics emblem alongside the word 'PRÓBA' (meaning 'trial' or 'pattern'), indicating the coin's status as a pattern strike. The three-line inscription 'XIII ZIMOWE IGRZYSKA OLIMPIJSKIE LAKE PLACID N Y' arcs across the lower portion of the field, with the year '1980' centered at the bottom. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the athletic motif dominating the upper field. The design was engraved by Józef Markiewicz-Nieszcz. |
