| Beschrijving keerzijde | A coloured representation of the iconic golden funerary death mask of Pharaoh Tutankhamun occupies the central field, rendered in polychrome enamel with vivid blue and gold striping on the nemes headdress, a braided false beard, and an elaborately decorated broad collar in tones of blue, brown, and turquoise. Two vertical columns of incuse hieroglyphic inscriptions flank the mask on the left, while a cartouche bearing the royal name of Tutankhamun in hieroglyphs appears to the right. The legend TUTANKHAMUN arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, and the commemorative inscription 100 YEARS appears at the base, with the Perth Mint's P mintmark situated below the cartouche. |

The Perth Mint has produced Tutankhamun-themed issues periodically since the Egyptian antiquities licensing market opened more broadly to international mints in the 2000s, but the 2022 release coincided with the centenary of Howard Carter's November 1922 discovery of KV62 in the Valley of the Kings — making the timing deliberate rather than incidental. Carter's team spent a full decade cataloguing the tomb's contents, with over 5,000 objects eventually transferred to Cairo.
The .9999 fine standard — four nines purity — was adopted by Perth as a house specification in 1957 and remains finer than the .9167 historically used for sovereign-weight British gold coinage.
