| Reverse description | A naturalistic depiction of an adult koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) clinging to a branch with a juvenile koala riding on its back, both rendered in finely detailed high relief. The adult koala is shown facing slightly forward, its distinctive rounded ears and dense fur captured with careful engraving. The juvenile clings to the adult's back with its forelimbs visible around the mother's torso. In the lower right portion of the field, the inscription '1/2 oz 999 SILVER' appears, along with the Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark. The designer's initials 'SB' appear at lower left. |
