| Reverse description | A dynamic, colourised photographic-style portrait of Australian rock legend Bon Scott occupies the right half of the field, depicting him mid-performance holding a microphone, wearing a sleeveless denim jacket and displaying visible tattoos on his arm. To the left, the name BON SCOTT is rendered in bold block lettering in two lines, with a rampant lion heraldic device superimposed between the two words. Bon Scott's facsimile signature appears in script below the name legend. The Perth Mint's P mintmark is visible at lower right, and the copyright notice © 2024 Sevdoka Pty Ltd is inscribed along the lower arc of the inner border. |

| Additional information |
Bon Scott died in London on February 19, 1980, before AC/DC recorded Back in Black — the album that became one of the best-selling records in history and was written as a direct tribute to him. Perth Mint music-themed legal tender issues occupy an established niche in the Australian collector market, typically released in tightly controlled mintages with licensed artwork approval from the relevant estates.
