| Reverse description | The reverse features a vivid pad-printed representation of an original Indigenous Australian artwork depicting a Black Swan, known in the Noongar language as Maali, rendered in traditional ochre-toned colors against an antiqued silver field. The design celebrates the cultural significance of the Black Swan as an iconic symbol of Western Australia and its deep-rooted connection to the Noongar people. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark and the initials KB, attributed to the artist or designer, appear within the field. The antiqued finish enhances the textural depth and visual contrast of the colored artwork, lending the piece a distinctive collectible character. |
