| Reverse description | Vivid full-color depiction of an adult Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) and a juvenile chick rendered in striking naturalistic detail against a mirrored silver field. The adult bird dominates the right portion of the design, its distinctive golden-brown casque, electric blue neck, and red wattles faithfully reproduced in color; the large dark body plumage extends across the central field. A smaller brown-striped chick faces the viewer from the lower left, sheltering close to the adult. Engraved tropical palm fronds flank the composition on both sides, those to the right rendered in color and those to the left in uncolored relief. The inscription SOUTHERN CASSOWARY appears in raised letters along the lower central field. |
