| 背面描述 | Central depiction of the Dutch East India Company vessel Vergulde Draeck under full sail, rendered in fine detail and surrounded by decorative maritime ornaments including compass roses, sea creatures, and cartographic flourishes evocative of 17th-century Dutch cartographic art. The inscription VERGULDE DRAECK 1656 references the year of the ship's sinking off the coast of Western Australia. The fineness and weight designation 1oz .9999 Au appears within the design. All text and design elements are oriented inversely relative to the obverse, consistent with the triangular format. |

The Vergulde Draeck — "Gilded Dragon" — was a Dutch East India Company vessel that wrecked on a reef off the Western Australian coast in April 1656, carrying some 78,000 guilders in silver coinage. Of the 193 aboard, only 75 survived the initial wreck; a small party reached Batavia by open boat, and two rescue expeditions were dispatched, yet the remaining survivors were never found. The wreck site, rediscovered in 1963, remains a protected archaeological zone under Western Australian law.
Dutch silver pieces from the cargo have been recovered and are held by the Western Australian Museum.
