Beschrijving keerzijde A highly detailed depiction of a tiger snake (Notechis scutulatus) coiled prominently in the centre of the field, rendered with fine scale detail accentuating its characteristic banded patterning of alternating dark and pale crossbands. The snake is set against a naturalistic background featuring grasses and a mountainous landscape in low relief. The legend 'TIGER SNAKE' arcs across the upper field in bold incuse lettering, while the inscription '1 oz 999 SILVER' appears vertically along the left side of the design. The designer's initials 'EW' are present in the lower right area of the field.

Aanvullende informatie

The tiger snake dollar is part of the Royal Australian Mint's ongoing Dangerous Australians series, which has systematically worked through the continent's more lethal fauna since the program's inception. Notechis scutatus carries one of the highest venom yields of any snake species on earth, a fact that made it a subject of serious antivenom research in the mid-twentieth century — work largely pioneered at the Commonwealth Serum Laboratories in Melbourne.

The sixth portrait of Elizabeth II, by sculptor Jody Clark, was adopted by the RAM in 2019.
