Endemic to Australia, the emu has long, powerful legs capable of propelling it up to speeds of 31 MPH over the course of short distances. The emu can reach heights of 62 in height and appears on the coat of arms for Australia.

The image was created for the Royal Mint of England in 2015 by Jody Clark. Inscriptions include Elizabeth II, Australia, and 1 Dollar. There is also an inscription of JC, the initials of Jody Clark on this side of the coin.

Reverse
