| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved scene of two Aboriginal figures posed on an overhanging branch above a billabong, in the act of spearing barramundi and garfish below the water's surface. The dynamic composition is arranged in the annular field around the central perforation, with the fish depicted in precise detail within the lower register. The encircling legend ONE OUNCE · THE HOLEY DOLLAR · 999 SILVER 1990 is separated by raised dot stops and contained within a beaded outer border. The design evokes traditional Indigenous hunting practice through fluid, naturalistic line work characteristic of Australian commemorative coinage of this period. |
