| Reverse description | A naturalistically rendered kookaburra, the iconic Australian kingfisher, is depicted perched on a branch in three-quarter profile facing left, occupying the central field of the square flan. The bird's plumage is rendered with fine engraved detail. The legend AUSTRALIA arcs above in large capital letters following the upper curve of the design, while the denomination ONE PENNY is inscribed in two lines in the lower portion of the field. The composition is bold and uncluttered, with ample flat field surrounding the central motif, reflecting the experimental design intent of the Kookaburra pattern series. |
