| Reverse description | A highly detailed, close-up depiction of a short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) fills the field, its distinctive quills radiating outward in fine relief across the upper portion of the design. The animal's forelegs and claws are prominently rendered flanking the central denomination numeral '5', which is surmounted by a stylised crown incorporating a mint mark shield. The designer's initials 'SD' for Stuart Devlin appear in small characters at the lower edge of the field. The composition is naturalistic and boldly modelled, characteristic of Devlin's celebrated animal series for Australian decimal coinage. |
