| Reverse description | The reverse features a central circular composition depicting Australian soldiers in a World War I trench scene, rendered in high relief with fine engraved detail. The figures, equipped with rifles and field gear, are shown actively engaged in combat or support duties, evoking the theme of resourcefulness under adversity. Poppy blooms, symbolic of remembrance, are prominent in the right field, while structural elements such as timber supports and wire appear in the background. The denomination numeral 50 is prominently placed at the top of the central circle, and the word RESOURCEFUL arcs boldly along the lower periphery. |
