| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a pad-printed polychrome design depicting an Asian elephant viewed from the side, its head lowered toward a spherical object resting on the ground, rendered in naturalistic brown tones. To the right of the elephant stands a cluster of bamboo stalks with pointed leaves, executed in muted golden-green hues consistent with the aluminium bronze substrate. The numeral 1 appears in the lower centre field, with the inscription DOLLAR arcing beneath it along the lower rim. The overall composition evokes a zoo habitat setting, characteristic of the Royal Australian Mint's Zoo Series collectible issues. The coloured design is applied by pad printing over the struck coin surface. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Zoo Series was issued by the Royal Australian Mint in partnership with Taronga Zoo Sydney and Australia Zoo, with proceeds directed toward wildlife conservation programs. The Asian elephant inclusion reflects broader concern over the species' declining wild population — by 2012, estimates placed fewer than 50,000 individuals remaining across fragmented habitats in South and Southeast Asia.
The pad-printing technique applied to this coin allowed full-colour decoration on the circulating aluminium bronze blank without altering the planchet itself — a process the RAM had been refining since the mid-2000s for collector-grade issues.
