The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left rim, with AUSTRALIA continuing along the upper right, and the date 2018 positioned at the lower right.

| Reverse description | The reverse features a high-relief, close-up portrait of Ravi, a red panda resident of Australia Zoo, engraved by Stevan Stojanovic, whose initials SMS appear to the right of the design. The animal's face is rendered with exceptional detail, capturing the distinctive facial markings, prominent whiskers, and rounded ears of Ailurus fulgens in a naturalistic style. The legend FIVE DOLLARS arcs along the upper rim, with the name RAVI inscribed immediately below it. The purity and weight specification 1oz .999 Ag is inscribed in the lower left field, while AUSTRALIA ZOO curves along the lower rim. The deeply recessed background field provides strong contrast to the finely detailed central motif. |
