| 裏面の説明 | A dramatic color-printed composition depicts the Murchison meteorite streaking as a blazing fireball through the upper field, set against the deep blue expanse of outer space, with the curvature of the Earth visible in the lower field. A transparent inlaid capsule containing four small fragments of the carbonaceous chondrite Murchison meteorite is embedded in the lower portion of the coin. The inscription METEORITES - COSMIC FIREBALLS is rendered in the field, identifying the series theme. |

The Murchison meteorite fell near Murchison, Victoria, in September 1969 — the same year as the Apollo 11 landing, which lent the event outsized public attention. It remains one of the most scientifically significant carbonaceous chondrites ever recovered, containing over 90 different amino acids, more than 70 of which are extraterrestrial in origin. Its fall produced a fragmentary strewn field yielding roughly 100 kg of recoverable material.
