| 裏面の説明 | 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. |

The Blue Mountains west of Sydney defeated European explorers for over two decades after British settlement — the dense scrub and sheer sandstone escarpments made conventional valley-following routes impassable. Gregory Blaxland, William Lawson, and William Charles Wentworth finally crossed in May 1813 by keeping to the ridgelines rather than the gorges, reaching the western plains and opening the interior of New South Wales to pastoral expansion that would reshape the colony within a generation.
Cook Islands has issued commemoratives under this broad "exploration and discovery" program since the early 2000s, with KM#2363 among hundreds of similar-format issues produced for the collector market rather than circulation.
