| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely sculptured representation of the Kangaroo Paw flower (Anigozanthos manglesii), the floral emblem of Western Australia, rendered in high cameo relief against a deeply mirror-polished proof field. The distinctive tubular, claw-like blossoms and fibrous stem of the Kangaroo Paw are depicted with meticulous naturalistic detail, capturing the velvety texture of the plant's surface. The denomination 150 DOLLARS is inscribed in two lines to the left of the central motif in bold Latin lettering. The engraver's initials HH, attributable to Horst Hahne, appear to the lower right of the floral design. A decorative scalloped border frames the entire reverse composition. |
