| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, rendered in fine detail with curled hair and a pearl drop earring, as sculpted by Ian Rank-Broadley for the fourth definitive portrait. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the upper left field and 'AUSTRALIA' along the upper right, with the date '2019' positioned at the lower right. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear incuse below the truncation of the neck. The design is set against a deeply mirrored proof field characteristic of collector-issue coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a large letter 'X' prominently displayed in the left-centre field, representing the letter 'X' in the Great Aussie Coin Hunt alphabetical series, with the word 'XANTIPPE' referencing the Western Australian town. A textured relief map of the Australian continent, showing state and territory boundaries, occupies the right portion of the field. Concentric arc lines sweep across the lower field, evoking a radio signal or wave motif, accompanied by a crescent-shaped graphic element partially overlapping the letter. The curved legend 'ONE DOLLAR · XANTIPPE' arcs along the upper periphery. |
