Details

Standing at 5 meters tall, 15 meters in length, and 3 meters wide, the Giant Murray Cod sits proudly in Swan Hill, Victoria, a poignant reminder of the diminishing population of this once abundant native species in the Murray-Darling River system. Made of steel, fiberglass and wonderfully bright pain, tourists from all over come to see the massive structure in all it's glory. This Reverse depicts the Giant Cod sitting in front of a Swan Hill name placard, with a ribbon of foliage accompanying it, while on the Obverse, the Queen's 'memorial' dated 1952-2022 is present.
