| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley, is depicted in right-facing profile, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara and a pearl drop earring. The finely detailed portrait renders the Queen's hair and facial features with high sculptural relief characteristic of proof coinage. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left periphery, with AUSTRALIA and the date 2019 along the right, all in Latin capitals. The engraver's initials IRB appear in small characters beneath the truncation of the neck. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold, large serif letter S dominating the lower centre of the field, representing the letter assigned to Surf Life Saving in The Great Aussie Coin Hunt series. Above and to the right, a high-relief figure of a male surf lifesaver is depicted in dynamic stance astride a surfboard inscribed SURF RESCUE, set against a stylised background of concentric wave arcs radiating across the upper field. The denomination ONE DOLLAR and the inscription SURF LIFE SAVING appear along the lower periphery in incuse Latin lettering, separated by a dot. |
