| Reverse description | The reverse presents a boldly coloured high-relief depiction of a snake whose sinuous body coils continuously around the two circular apertures of the figure-eight flan, evoking the ancient ouroboros symbol of infinity. The serpent's head, rendered with finely detailed scales in blue, teal, and cream tones, is positioned at the central waist of the coin facing right, with its body forming a double loop decorated in vivid yellow, blue, purple, and green polychrome enamel-style colouration. The intricate scale texture is achieved through meticulous die engraving, with subtle iridescent colour application enhancing the naturalistic effect. The Perth Mint's P mintmark appears incuse at the lower centre of the waist, accompanied by the engraver's initials MR immediately to its right. The plain antiqued silver border frames the composition without additional legend. |
