| Obverse description | The Polish state eagle displayed in the center of the field, rendered in the heraldic style of the Second Polish Republic, featuring a crowned white eagle with wings spread, set against a plain shield on the breast. The circular legend reads '1939 RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA' (Republic of Poland), arranged around the periphery. This trial strike notably lacks the central hole present on the regular circulation issue, giving the obverse design its full, uninterrupted appearance. |

| Reverse description | The large numeral '5' dominates the center of the field in bold, stylized typography, set within a decorative cartouche formed by curved lines. Below the numeral, the denomination legend 'GROSZY' is inscribed in a straight line across the lower field. Flanking the central design are stylized foliate or floral motifs on either side, serving as decorative elements in the composition. The overall design is clean and modernist in character, consistent with the aesthetic of Polish coinage of the interwar period. |
