| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of a sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita) perched upon a textured branch, rendered in high relief with meticulous attention to feather detail, its distinctive erected crest prominently displayed. The large stylised letter 'C' occupies the left field as the alphabetic motif central to the Great Aussie Coin Hunt series. The denomination '1 DOLLAR' is inscribed in the upper right field, and the word 'COCKATOO' appears in the lower portion of the field in bold lettering. Decorative background elements including linear engraving and clustered pellets add visual depth to the composition. |
