Reverse description The reverse, designed by James Berry, features a central composite design element incorporating a stylised New Zealand fern motif overlaid on a Union Jack-patterned framework, symbolising the Commonwealth connection. Surrounding this central device are eight dynamic figures of athletes in high relief, each engaged in a different track and field discipline, including pole vault, high jump, sprinting, and shot put, arranged radially around the central emblem. The engraver's initials PB appear in the lower right field. The circumferential legend X BRITISH COMMONWEALTH GAMES CHRISTCHURCH runs around the upper and side periphery, while the denomination ONE DOLLAR is inscribed along the lower border, separated by raised dot stops.
