| Reverse description | A richly coloured and intricately detailed composition depicting the marine ecosystem of the Great Barrier Reef. Starfish, giant clams, and branching coral rendered in sculptural relief form an elaborate backdrop to the polychrome enamel elements, which faithfully reproduce the vivid hues of tropical sea life. The design is further distinguished by the incorporation of a genuine natural pearl set within the composition. The legend GREAT BARRIER REEF appears in the field. The overall design conveys exceptional artistic and technical craftsmanship consistent with high-end bullion collector coinage. |
