| Reverse description | A naturalistic depiction of a kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) perched on a branch, its head raised and beak open in a characteristically alert posture, with eucalyptus foliage rendered in fine detail in the upper right background. A small dotted outline map of Australia appears in the lower left field. The circular legend 'THE AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA' arcs along the upper border, with '1 OZ. 999 SILVER' continuing along the right, and the date '1992' centered at the base, all separated by raised dot stops. The design is set within a beaded inner border against a frosted relief field contrasting with a polished background. |
