| Reverse description | A highly detailed, finely rendered kangaroo is depicted in the central field, shown bending forward to drink from a still body of water, its tail extended and hind legs firmly planted on sandy ground. Ripples radiate outward on the water's surface where the animal's muzzle makes contact, conveying a naturalistic scene of the Australian outback. A stylised landscape background features low scrubland and sparse trees rendered in fine relief against a satin-finished field. The circumferential legend, separated from the central design by a beaded border, reads 'THE AUSTRALIAN NUGGET' at the top, '1/4 OZ. 9999 GOLD' to the right, and the date '2003' at the base, flanked by two small dots. |
