| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed naturalistic composition depicting an adult tiger and its cub traversing a rocky landscape adorned with ferns and bamboo foliage, rendered in fine relief by engraver Jon Masters. The adult tiger strides protectively alongside the cub, with both animals portrayed with careful attention to musculature and fur texture in the manner of traditional wildlife numismatic art. The Chinese character 虎 (Tiger) appears prominently within the design field, accompanied by the English inscription TIGER. The date 2022 and the Perth Mint's distinctive P mintmark are also present, along with the engraver's initials JM. The overall composition reflects the Australian Lunar Series design tradition, combining Eastern iconographic elements with Western engraving technique. |
