Reverse description The reverse presents an elaborately composed panoramic scene celebrating Australia's gold rush era and the discovery of pink diamonds in the Kimberley region. On the outer portion, a sailing ship and a rowboat are depicted ferrying hopeful diggers ashore, while a 19th-century prospector pans for gold before a camp of miners' tents. Adjacent imagery evokes the Kimberley landscape through the depiction of an iconic boab tree and kangaroos, with a brilliant-cut pink diamond set to represent the tropical sun. A worker ant is shown carrying an emerald-cut pink diamond clasped in its mandibles atop a mound of earth, referencing the legendary discovery of pink diamonds glinting from anthills. The Perth Mint privy mark P and the inscription DISCOVERY appear in the legend, referencing the coin's thematic series.
