| Reverse description | The reverse bears a three-quarter facing portrait of Sir Donald Bradman depicted in his cricket attire, wearing a baggy cap and holding a raised cricket bat in his right hand, commemorating the centenary of his birth. The central design is set within a raised inner border, with a textured field evoking the atmosphere of a cricket ground. The legend SIR DONALD BRADMAN - ANOTHER CENTURY arcs along the upper periphery, while FIVE DOLLARS appears along the lower border, all in bold raised Latin lettering. The reverse was designed by Wojciech Pietranik and the composition references Bradman's legendary ability to score centuries, a fitting double entendre for the commemorative theme. |
