| Reverse description | Two kookaburras perched side by side on a branch rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field, one bird facing forward with its head raised upward and the other in a slightly lowered resting posture, both depicted in fine naturalistic detail. The Perth Mint privy mark 'P' appears in the lower right field. The design is otherwise unlettered, allowing the sculptural quality of the birds to dominate the composition. |
