| Reverse description | The reverse features a dynamic naturalistic composition by George James Berry depicting multiple Atiu Swiftlets (Aerodramus sawtelli) in flight across an open field. A large, prominently rendered swiftlet dominates the centre of the design with wings fully extended, while several smaller birds of the same species are shown in various attitudes of flight around it, conveying a sense of movement and aerial freedom. A border of small five-pointed stars encircles the scene along the inner periphery. The denomination legend FIVE DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower arc, and the engraver's initials appear in the left field near the rim. |
