The word AUSTRALIA arcs across the upper field, while HALF PENNY curves along the lower periphery. The date appears in the lower left field, and the designer's initials KG are inscribed at lower left beneath the kangaroo. A small mint mark, where present, appears to the right of the date. A small six-pointed star or dot punctuation mark appears in the right field, and the design is framed by a toothed border throughout. |
