| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a colourful pad-printed scene of an Australian soldier in First World War uniform bidding farewell to his young daughter on a wharf, the child visibly distressed as her father prepares to board a troopship. The emotive composition captures the human cost of the war's outbreak in 1914. A red poppy motif, symbolic of wartime remembrance, appears within the design. The inscription 1914 – FAREWELL TO FAMILY arcs across the field, and the Perth Mint's traditional 'P' mintmark is present. The vivid colour printing contrasts against the polished silver surface to heighten the commemorative impact. |
