| Reverse description | The quartered arms of Melbourne occupy the central field, displaying a bull, a whale, a sailing ship, and a crown at the centre point; flanking foliage scrolls serve as supporters. Above the shield, the five interlocked Olympic rings are prominently displayed with a kangaroo surmounting them. The legend arcs around the upper and lower rim, with the year 1956 integrated into the design above the rings. |
