| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II in the fourth portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The legend 'ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 1 DOLLAR' arcs around the upper periphery, with the designer's initials 'IRB' truncated below the portrait. The field is plain and unadorned, consistent with standard Australian decimal coinage of the period. |
