| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylised X-ray or dreamtime-inspired rendition of a platypus in full profile, depicted with intricate internal anatomical patterning evoking Aboriginal art traditions, designed by Darryl Bellotti. The animal faces left across the central field, its distinctive bill, webbed feet, and broad tail clearly delineated through decorative linear engraving. The curved legend DISCOVER AUSTRALIA arcs along the upper periphery, while the inscriptions 2010 PLATYPUS and 1/2 OZ 9999 GOLD appear along the lower rim. The Perth Mint's P mintmark is visible in the field below the platypus, with the designer's initials DB also present. |
