Reverse description A finely detailed high-relief scene depicting a bearded gold prospector crouching at the water's edge, panning for gold with a broad shallow pan held at the lower centre of the field. Nuggets of gold are shown emerging from the rocky streambed in the middle ground, while a dense landscape of eucalyptus trees and scrub fills the background. The composition conveys the drama of the Australian gold rush era with strong contrasts between mirror-polished fields and frosted relief. The legend THE DISCOVERY OF GOLD is inscribed along the lower right border in Latin characters.
