Rituals practiced during Diwali include cleaning and decorating homes with oil lamps called diyas. Family feasts, gift-giving, fireworks and sweets are other long-established customs. Participants also pay homage to Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity, and the elephant headed Ganesha, the god of good fortune."
"The medallion's reverse portrays representations of Lakshmi sitting on a lotus flower, the symbol of enlightenment, and Ganesha. Gilded elements of the design comprise hanging lamps, the gods' ornate headdresses and neckpieces, as well as the coins and sweets displayed in their bowls. Additionally, the artistry includes stylised star bursts symbolising the light from diyas. The design includes the inscription happy diwali, the medallion's weight and fineness, and The Perth Mint's traditional 'P' mintmark. The obverse depicts a rangoli-inspired pattern comprising diya and lotus motifs."
