The design captures fine feather detail on the bird and delicate floral relief throughout the composition. The legend and technical inscriptions appear around and within the field, including the date, weight, fineness designation, and mintmark, identifying this as a two-ounce fine silver proof issue struck at the Perth Mint. |
