| Reverse description | The Commonwealth of Australia coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield supported by a kangaroo to the left and an emu to the right, both standing on a grassy mound. Above the shield, a seven-pointed Commonwealth Star is prominently displayed. A scroll beneath the supporters bears the motto ADVANCE AUSTRALIA in raised lettering. The denomination SIXPENCE arcs across the upper field, and the date appears in the lower field below the supporters, with the mint mark M (Melbourne) positioned just below the date on applicable issues. |
