| 背面描述 | The reverse features a pad-printed full-colour depiction of the iconic 1971 Ford XY Falcon GT-HO presented in a three-quarter front view against a vivid red background, rendered in red, black, and white tones. The legend FORD AUSTRALIAN CLASSICS arcs along the upper portion of the field, flanking the large numeral 50 denoting the coin's face value at the apex. The inscription 8 CYLINDER appears to the right of the vehicle in the mid-field, while XY FALCON GT-HO is prominently inscribed in raised lettering across the lower field, with the model year 1971 appearing below. Decorative circuit-board-style line motifs frame the coloured central panel within the coin's characteristic dodecagonal border. |

The XY GT-HO Phase III, released in 1971, was clocked at 227 km/h during testing at Bathurst — making it the fastest production sedan in the world at the time. That record, and the car's dominance in touring car racing, alarmed the Australian government sufficiently to trigger the "supercar scare" of 1972, a parliamentary inquiry that effectively killed the high-performance Falcon program before a Phase IV could reach production. Ford Australia destroyed the Phase IV prototypes rather than face regulatory consequences.
Pad printing on circulating-format coinage remains relatively rare; the colour application adds manufacturing complexity that standard cupro-nickel blanking does not require.
