| Reverse description | A highly detailed rendering of an Australian Saltwater Crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) occupies the central field, depicted in three-quarter view with its powerful jaws open wide, revealing rows of teeth, and its heavily armoured, scaly body coiled across the design. The intricate surface texture of the reptile's osteoderms and scutes is rendered with exceptional relief. The curved legend 'AUSTRALIAN SALTWATER CROCODILE' arcs along the upper periphery, while the lower legend reads '2017 1/4oz 9999 GOLD', with the Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark positioned centrally below the animal between the two inscriptions. |
