| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after Ian Rank-Broadley, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, set against a dark field. The portrait is encircled by a decorative border featuring the emblems of the Royal Arms of the United Kingdom — including the Imperial Crown at top, lion and unicorn supporters, orb, sceptres, and heraldic beasts — arranged in a continuous ring divided by rope-twist separators. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs to the upper left, TOKELAU to the upper right, and ONE DOLLAR appears at the base, with the date 2020 to the right and the engraver's initials IRB beneath the portrait. At the bottom of the coin, a rectangular panel depicts the flag of Tokelau. |

| Additional information |
Tokelau's commemorative program has, since the early 2010s, operated largely as a licensing and revenue arrangement — the territory itself has no domestic coin-using economy, and issues like this one are struck for the collector market under New Zealand administrative oversight. The Auxiliary Territorial Service, the British women's corps that served in anti-aircraft batteries and other roles during the Second World War, was formally recognized as part of the British Army only in 1941, two years after the ATS had already been mobilized.
