| Reverse description | The reverse features a richly coloured design in the tradition of Australian Aboriginal art, depicting Ngana Nyitting (Blue River) as conceived by the artist KB. A sweeping blue river rendered in flowing wavy lines and concentric circle motifs occupies the upper portion of the field, highlighted with selective colour application in shades of blue. The central field displays an elaborate arrangement of concentric rings, spirals, dotwork, and interlocking curvilinear forms in blue and grey tones against the gold aluminium-bronze ground, with accents of green in the lower register suggesting vegetation. The Perth Mint mintmark P appears at the upper left, the date 2025 is inscribed at the top of the field, and the artist's initials KB are found at the lower right. |
