| Reverse description | A finely detailed kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) is depicted in high relief, perched upright and facing left atop a corrugated iron rooftop, its beak open in characteristic laughing posture. A dramatic sunrise radiates bold rays across the field behind the bird, with the sun's disc visible at the lower right above the roofline, evoking the Australian dawn. The legend AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA arcs across the upper field, while 30TH ANNIVERSARY curves along the lower field, flanked by the denomination and fineness inscription 5OZ 9999 GOLD on the right. The Perth Mint's P mintmark appears at lower left within the inner circle, and the engraver's initials JM are incused on the rooftop surface to the right of the bird. |
