| Obverse description | The central field features a detailed relief depiction of the Rysy mountain massif, the highest peak in Poland at 2499 metres above sea level. The inner border separates the central motif from a coloured outer ring, with the legend arching along the upper portion reading 'Rysy 2499 m.n.p.m.' and 'TATRY' along the lower portion. |

| Reverse description | The central field presents a detailed relief figure of a Tatra chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra tatrica) standing in profile on a rocky outcrop. The surrounding legend, divided between the upper and lower portions of the coloured outer ring, gives both the Polish common name and the Latin binomial nomenclature of the species, separated by small diamond-shaped ornaments. |
