Reverse description The reverse features a highly detailed depiction of the Giant Murray Cod (Maccullochella peelii), Australia's largest freshwater fish, shown in three-quarter profile facing left across the lower and central field, its characteristic broad head, large mouth, and finely engraved scaled body rendered with naturalistic precision. Behind the fish, a roadside tourism sign inscribed SWAN HILL is flanked by native flora and vegetation. Diagonal bands suggesting a highway or roadway recede into the upper right background, referencing the famous fibreglass Big Murray Cod roadside attraction at Swan Hill, Victoria. The legend GIANT MURRAY COD appears in bold relief to the upper left of the field, with SWAN HILL inscribed on the rendered signpost within the design.
