| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, high-relief depiction of a Phoenix, the mythical bird of rebirth and renewal, rendered in an East Asian artistic idiom. The creature is shown in dynamic flight, its scaled body turned three-quarters toward the viewer, wings spread wide, and an elaborate, sweeping plumage of intricately detailed tail feathers curling throughout the lower field. Stylised clouds and swirling decorative scrollwork fill the background, enhancing the sense of movement and grandeur. The Perth Mint mintmark 'P' appears to the lower left of the design, and the designer's initials 'LB' are incuse in the right field. The coin has received an antiqued finish, lending the deeply sculpted relief a dramatic chiaroscuro effect. |
