The coin's reverse depicts an adult koala walking along a branch of a eucalyptus tree. The design includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN KOALA, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the 2016 year-date. The reverse of the coin is minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
