| Reverse description | The reverse presents a solemn commemorative scene set within a mirror-proof field. At left, a fully detailed figure of an Australian soldier in World War II uniform and steel helmet stands at attention facing right, overlooking a military cemetery. Three cross grave markers rise from the ground in the middle field, while four silhouetted civilian mourners — including a clergyman and what appears to be a uniformed officer — pay their respects in the background. The arc legend WORLD WAR 1939-1945 REMEMBRANCE curves along the upper periphery, and the denomination FIFTY CENTS is inscribed in bold lettering along the lower exergue. |
