| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Bird of Paradise (Raggiana bird of paradise) displayed with wings fully spread and elaborate plumage rendered in fine detail, perched above a crossed pair of traditional kundu drums. The legend PAPUA NEW GUINEA arcs along the upper periphery in bold Latin characters, with the date of issue positioned in the lower field. The entire design is enclosed within a dentilated border, and the mirror-like proof fields provide strong contrast against the frosted relief elements. |
