Gilded Reverse Highlights

The coin’s reverse portrays an appealing image of a kookaburra on a corrugated iron rooftop in noticeably raised relief. For a beautifully enhanced appearance, the stylised rays of sunshine in the background are delicately gilded in pink gold. Also included in the design is The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.
