| Reverse description | Fully colorized scene commemorating the Japanese bombing of Darwin on 19 February 1942. In the foreground, an Allied soldier crouches behind a sandbag emplacement in the lower right, aiming a submachine gun skyward toward two Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter aircraft bearing prominent red hinomaru roundels, depicted in flight across the upper field. In the middle ground, a warship and a burning vessel are visible in Darwin Harbour, with a large column of smoke and flame rising to the left. The inscription appears in two lines along the lower exergue on a plain silver band. |
