| Reverse description | The copper-nickel centre depicts a detailed rendering of a crane (Grus) standing upon an astronomical star chart, with the constellation pattern of Grus rendered as connected star nodes in the lower field. A navigational degree scale ring, marked with cardinal directions N and S and degree graduations, overlays the central design, conveying the astronomical theme. The inscription CRANE - GRUS appears in the right-centre field. The nickel brass outer ring bears the legend SOUTHERN CONSTELLATIONS arcing across the upper portion, while the denomination £2 is inscribed at the base. The crane's head extends into the outer ring at the upper left, bridging the two metallic zones for artistic effect. |
