| 背面描述 | The reverse reproduces Sidney Nolan's celebrated 1948 painting Burke and Wills Expedition, depicting figures mounted on camels traversing an arid Australian desert landscape rendered in the artist's distinctive figurative style. The composition conveys the isolation and harshness of the outback interior, with the camel train silhouetted against the stark terrain. The artist's name SIDNEY NOLAN appears prominently in the legend, accompanied by the denomination 5 DOLLARS and the painting title BURKE AND WILLS EXPEDITION. The design is framed within a circular field consistent with the proof finish of the series. |

Sidney Nolan's Ned Kelly series, painted largely between 1946 and 1947, was completed while Nolan was technically AWOL from the Australian army — he had deserted in 1944 and spent the intervening years in hiding in the Wimmera district, which happened to be Kelly country. The Royal Australian Mint's Masterpieces in Silver series drew on that cultural weight rather than the numismatic tradition, issuing collector pieces explicitly positioned as fine art objects in coin form.
KM#787 is one of several releases in the series pairing the fourth Machin-derived portrait with distinctly Australian artistic subjects — an unusual editorial choice that created an intentional tension between the colonial obverse and the defiantly nationalist reverse subject.
