| Reverse description | Central device features a kookaburra in a slightly slimmer rendition than the Type 4 design, with a noticeably shorter beak, perched and facing. The bird is rendered in relief within the square field with rounded corners, consistent with the overall format of the pattern series. The legend AUSTRALIA ONE PENNY is distributed around the periphery, framing the central motif in a plain Latin script. This Type 5 variant is distinguished from earlier types by subtle but deliberate modifications to the kookaburra's proportions and beak length. |
