| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a vivid pad-printed colour illustration of the Small Leaf Lillypilly (Syzygium parvifolium), depicting a cluster of bright red berries with golden stems, accompanied by green leaves and pink floral petals set against a dark field. The series title 'DISCOVER AUSTRALIA' arcs prominently along the upper legend. The left arc bears the inscription '1/10 OZ PLATINUM 9995', the date '2008' appears at the base, and 'SMALL LEAF LILLYPILLY' is inscribed along the right arc. The polished proof field surrounding the coloured central motif provides strong contrast to the naturalistic botanical design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Lillypilly series drew from Australia's native rainforest flora at a moment when the Royal Australian Mint was aggressively expanding its bullion and proof platinum program. The small leaf lilly pilly — Syzygium luehmannii — is endemic to coastal Queensland and northern New South Wales, a deliberate counterpoint to the eucalyptus-heavy iconography that had dominated Australian numismatic flora for decades.
Pad printing on platinum at this scale was technically demanding; the process allowed color application that conventional die striking cannot achieve, but adhesion consistency on .9995 fine platinum presented quality control challenges that limited mintage figures sharply.
