Description
The Australian Saltwater Crocodile is the largest reptile in the world in terms of body mass, and is found in suitable habitats from northern Australia through Southeast Asia to the eastern coast of India. Their sheer enormity makes them the most dangerous of all crocodiles to humans.

The coin’s reverse depicts a saltwater crocodile with its jaws open, exposing its sharp teeth. The design includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN SALTWATER CROCODILE, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the 2015 year-date.
Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and the monetary denomination are depicted on the coin’s obverse.
