Reverse description The reverse features a dramatic commemorative composition by Lucas Bowers marking the 250th anniversary of Captain James Cook's voyage along the Australian eastern coast. To the left, a detailed rendering of HMS Endeavour under full sail is depicted in engraved relief, with rigging and anchor finely detailed. A bold silhouette of the Australian continent occupies the centre of the field, its interior finished in a contrasting dark mirror or enamel ground, evoking the uncharted territory encountered during the 1770 voyage. To the right, a textured landscape of coastal cliffs and vegetation is depicted in intricate relief. The curved legend ENDEAVOUR 1770 – 2020 arcs along the upper border, with the Perth Mint's P mintmark visible at the left field and the engraver's initials LB at the lower right.
