Reverse description A merino ram, the preeminent symbol of the wool industry in colonial Australia, is depicted standing in profile facing left at the centre of the field, rendered in fine relief against a plain ground. Two crossed items — consistent with pastoral or trade symbolism — appear beneath the animal. The circular legend PEACE AND PLENTY • SYDNEY • N.S.W. surrounds the central device, separated by a dot stop, and is contained within a beaded outer border. The overall composition reflects the agricultural and commercial identity of the issuing merchant house.
