| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic high-relief depiction of a primordial geological landscape designed by Jennifer Rogers, evoking the ancient forces that shaped the Earth. At the upper centre, a radiant sun-like form with sweeping linear rays dominates the composition, at its core a set genuine diamond insert encircled by concentric rings. Below, richly layered strata of rock and terrain sweep across the field in bold sculptural relief, conveying the immense geological forces associated with rare earth formation. The legend 'RARE EARTH' is boldly incuse across the lower portion of the design within the rocky terrain. The engraver's initials 'JR' appear to the lower left of the design, with the Perth Mint 'P' mintmark positioned to the right mid-field. |
