On the reverse, the coin highlights a detailed depiction of a koala in its natural Australian environment. Each year, the Perth Mint introduces a new artistic design, often showing the koala perched in eucalyptus trees or interacting with its surroundings. These annual design changes make the series especially appealing to collectors seeking variety.
