| Obverse description | Fourth-generation effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, as modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley. The legend ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 2019 arcs around the upper periphery, with the engraver's initials IRB appearing below the portrait truncation. The design is executed in a refined, realistic style characteristic of Rank-Broadley's portraiture. |

| Reverse description | A stylised depiction of a platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) swimming to the left in three-quarter perspective, rendered with fine detail showing its distinctive bill, webbed feet, and beaver-like tail. A series of concentric arc lines in the upper field evoke water ripples or a wave pattern behind the animal. A large capital letter P occupies the left-centre field, serving as the alphabetic identifier for this issue in the Great Aussie Coin Hunt series. Small air bubbles are shown near the platypus's bill. The legend ONE DOLLAR · PLATYPUS curves along the lower periphery. |
