Reverse description The central field presents a detailed high-relief composition commemorating the 1813 first European crossing of the Blue Mountains in New South Wales, Australia. To the right, a prominent bust of explorer Gregory Blaxland faces left, dressed in period frock coat and cravat and holding a document, with a topographic map of the Blue Mountains range rendered in relief behind him. To the left, two explorers in broad-brimmed hats navigate rugged rocky terrain, one ascending with a walking staff, evoking the arduous mountain passage. The curved legend FIRST CROSSING OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS arcs along the upper right periphery of the field.
