Reverse description A winged allegorical figure of Nike, the goddess of victory, is depicted in dynamic full-length pose at center, striding forward atop stylized clouds with her right arm raised triumphantly skyward and her left arm extended horizontally. She is draped in flowing classical robes with large feathered wings spread behind her, rendered in the Art Deco style. The circular legend 'RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA' arches around the upper portion of the field, and the engraver's initials 'E.W.' appear in the lower exergue. A toothed border runs along the rim.
