Description:
The reverse features a detailed portrait of a powerful African elephant shown walking forward. Its massive body, long legs, and characteristic downward-curving tusks are carefully sculpted, with textured skin folds adding depth, realism, and calm yet commanding presence. In the background, a savannah and trees landscape stretches outward with textured ground, reinforcing the natural habitat. Above the zoo animal, three inscriptions the series name "AUSTRALIA ZOO," the animal's name "AFRICAN ELEPHANT," followed by the weight "1 oz" and the purity of the material ".9999 Au". The designer's initials (AWB) is inscribed close to the bottom rim. The design was inspired by a photograph taken in Africa in 2019 by Robert Irwin, son of the famous documentary filmmaker Steve Irwin.
