| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in red, giving rise to the 'Redback' popular designation. The centre is occupied by a large ornate guilloche panel enclosing the word 'TWENTY' in bold serif capitals within a rectangular frame, flanked by numeral '20' counters on each side. The surrounding field is filled with intricate lathe-work rosettes and engine-turned geometric patterns forming an oval medallion. |
