Obverse description Central field features the Polish White Eagle (Orzeł Biały), the national coat of arms, displayed with wings spread and head turned to the right as seen by the viewer. The eagle wears no crown, consistent with the People's Republic period heraldic style. A circular legend reading 'POLSKA RZECZPOSPOLITA LUDOWA' (Polish People's Republic) surrounds the device, with the four-digit date positioned below the eagle. The mint mark, when present, appears beneath the eagle's left talon (right side from the viewer's perspective).

Reverse description The large numeral '50' dominates the upper portion of the field in bold, incuse-style relief, with the denomination legend 'GROSZY' inscribed in a slightly smaller font directly below. A symmetrical open olive or grain sprig curves upward from a central tied base at the bottom of the field, framing the denomination on both sides. The design is simple and uncluttered, with the sprig's tied stems meeting at the lower center of the coin, giving the composition a formal, balanced appearance typical of mid-twentieth-century Eastern European coinage.
