Celebrating Australia's wondrous wildlife species, the coin features a vibrant montage of outback landscape.

The design showcases iconic native species including emus, eagles, a dingo, kangaroos, and a frill-neck lizard, set amidst characteristic flora. 

The scene is enriched with elements of the rugger terrain - a tranquil watering hole, striking sandstone formations, and a radiant rising sun.

The coin's obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III as well as the coin's weight, purity and monetary denomination, encircled by a rich display of corals and flora.

Each coin is housed in a protective acrylic capsule.
