| Reverse description | A finely detailed standing kangaroo in high relief, depicted in a naturalistic pose facing left on rocky ground, inspired by the historic Port Phillip pattern coinage of 1853. The central motif is set within a plain inner circle, flanked to the right by the numeral '2' enclosed in a beaded circle denoting the 2-sovereign denomination. The legend 'PORT PHILLIP' arcs across the upper field and 'AUSTRALIA' across the lower field, both set against an elaborate engine-turned crosshatch background occupying the outer border. The weight, fineness, and anniversary dates '1853 - 2023' appear in the field. |
