Reverse description The reverse depicts a stylised representation of a solar eclipse as observed during the 1922 Wallal Expedition, which confirmed Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. A bold rendition of the Sun occupies the upper portion of the design, with radiating and distorted circular lines emanating across a schematic outline of the Australian continent below, evoking both the geometry of the eclipse and the bending of light around the Sun. The surrounding legend reads WALLAL CENTENARY AUSTRALIA TESTS EINSTEIN'S THEORY, with the specifications 1 OZ .999 Ag inscribed in the field.
