| Reverse description | The reverse features a seated allegorical female figure representing Commerce or Justice, draped in classical robes, facing left, and holding a balance scale in her extended left hand. She is seated upon a barrel to her right, with a cornucopia of produce at her feet in the lower field, symbolising the prosperity of colonial Victoria. To the left in the middle ground, a three-masted sailing ship is visible on open water. The curved legend MELBOURNE VICTORIA arcs across the upper field, and the date 1860 appears in the lower exergue. The entire design is enclosed within a continuous beaded border. |
