| Reverse description | The reverse features a stylised depiction of a Great White Shark rendered in the manner of Australian Aboriginal art, with fine parallel line-work, dotted patterning, and segmented body detailing occupying the foreground of the design. A second, more schematically rendered shark appears in the upper background within a circular coloured appliqué field of deep blue, evoking an underwater environment. The engraver's initials DB appear incuse on the body of the foreground shark, and the Perth Mint's P mintmark is positioned centrally at the lower field. The surrounding legend reads DISCOVER AUSTRALIA above, with 2011 GREAT WHITE SHARK 1/2 oz 9995 PLATINUM arcing around the lower periphery. |
