Reverse description The reverse depicts a naturalistic scene of an adult mute swan (Cygnus olor) facing left, its wings partially raised in a protective posture, accompanied by two cygnets resting on stylized water ripples in the lower field. The composition is rendered in fine sculptural relief against a smooth field, emphasizing the graceful contours of the birds. The legend 'OCHRONA ŚRODOWISKA' arcs along the upper rim, while the word 'PRÓBA' (trial strike) appears in smaller lettering within the design field to the lower left of the adult swan, identifying this piece as a pattern issue. The overall design is the work of engraver Ewa Olszewska-Borys.
