Reverse description The reverse features a stylised tree inspired by the Lone Pine at Gallipoli, rendered in a bold, graphic design evoking memory and sacrifice. The Lone Pine Cemetery marks the site of some of the most intense fighting of the Gallipoli campaign during the First World War, and the tree serves as a powerful symbol of remembrance for Australian and New Zealand forces. The centenary commemorative inscription GALLIPOLI 1915-2015 appears within the design field, along with the denomination FIVE DOLLARS. The composition balances figurative and symbolic elements in a modern numismatic artistic style.
