| Reverse description | The reverse is struck in the form of a postage stamp, with a coloured design commemorating the bicentenary of Australia Post. The central field features a vintage sepia-toned photographic image of a uniformed postman handing mail to a woman at a garden gate, evoking the tradition of home mail delivery. The legend 'AUSTRALIA POST – 200 YEARS' appears in red across the upper field, while the anniversary dates '1809–2009' are rendered in large white numerals overlaying the central image. In the lower left, the denomination '55c' is printed in red beneath the inscription 'Home delivery', and a circular postmark reading 'REGISTERED BRANCH LAUNCESTON TAS' with the date '18 JE 40' appears at the lower right. The word 'AUSTRALIA' is inscribed along the base of the field. |
