Reverse description The central field displays the coat of arms of the Principality of Hutt River, featuring a stylised heraldic bird with outstretched wings surmounted by a crested fan motif, with a caduceus-like sceptre descending vertically through the design and a pair of scales of justice suspended from the outstretched wings. The arms are set within a circular inner border. The legend ·HUTT·RIVER·PROVINCE· arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination THIRTY DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower arc. A beaded border frames the entire reverse.

Additional information

Hutt River Province seceded from Western Australia in 1970 after a wheat quota dispute that Leonard Casley believed would bankrupt his farm. The micronation issued its own currency, passports, and stamps — and by 1976 had established a surprisingly coherent coinage program in fine silver. The X# prefix in the standard reference reflects its classification as a "non-standard" issue, the numismatic establishment's polite refusal to treat Hutt River as a legitimate sovereign.
