| Reverse description | A highly detailed, gilt-accented composition depicting Australian honey bees (Apis mellifera) in their natural habitat. The central motif features a large, naturalistically rendered worker bee in high relief set against a background of engraved hexagonal honeycomb cells. Additional bees are shown in flight and at rest across the field. The upper portion displays a gilt honeycomb section dripping with honey, populated by further bees in flight. Native Australian eucalyptus blossoms and buds are rendered in silver in the lower left. The inscription 'HONEY BEE' is displayed vertically along the left side, with individual letters set within honeycomb cells in the gilt portion of the design. Selective gold plating highlights the honeycomb, honey drips, and the bee abdomens, contrasting with the frosted silver finish of the remaining design elements. |
