| Reverse description | A finely detailed naturalistic depiction of the Queen Alexandra's birdwing butterfly (Ornithoptera alexandrae), the world's largest butterfly, is portrayed with wings fully spread and occupying the majority of the field. The intricate venation of all four wings is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background, highlighting the species' distinctive wing patterning. The denomination 'K5' is inscribed in bold serif lettering at the lower center of the field. The design is enclosed within a beaded border running along the inner rim. |
