| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, high-relief depiction of a koala resting languidly along a eucalyptus branch, surrounded by finely engraved gum leaves. The koala is selectively gilded in pink gold, contrasting dramatically with the polished .9999 fine silver field and silver-finished foliage. The bold inscription KOALA arcs across the upper field in an elegant serif typeface. Along the left margin, the legends 2022, 5oz, and 9999 SILVER are inscribed, with the Perth Mint's distinctive P mintmark and the engraver's initials IJ appearing to the right of the design. The overall composition reflects the Perth Mint's tradition of combining selective gilding with high-relief minting to create striking naturalistic imagery. |
