| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved naturalistic composition depicting two koalas resting among eucalyptus branches and foliage, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field. The larger koala is shown in a relaxed, recumbent pose to the left, while a younger koala clings to a branch to the right, both exhibiting richly textured fur detail characteristic of Elise Martinson's artistry. The legend AUSTRALIAN KOALA arcs along the upper periphery within a raised border. Below the central design, the inscription 2011 5oz 999 SILVER is arranged horizontally across the lower field. The Perth Mint's P mintmark and the engraver's initials EM appear discreetly to the right within the field. |
