| Obverse description | A richly detailed Aboriginal dot-art composition fills the rectangular field, featuring a central concentric circle motif with a floral element at its core, surrounded by stylised fauna including fish and tortoise, human figures, plant forms, and traditional implements, all rendered in high relief against a stippled ground. The irregular, textured border evokes a natural or bark-like edge, reinforcing the Indigenous artistic tradition. The overall design celebrates the diversity and cultural heritage of Australian Aboriginal peoples. |
