| Reverse description | The central design features the South Sydney Rabbitohs club logo prominently positioned above a Rugby League football resting on a kicking tee, set before a pair of Rugby League goalposts evoking the interior of a football stadium. The composition is rendered in a bold, graphic style befitting the NRL commemorative series. The upper legend reads 2024 NRL PREMIERSHIP and the lower legend identifies the team as RABBITOHS. The overall design celebrates the South Sydney Rabbitohs franchise within the Royal Australian Mint's annual NRL coin programme. |

| Additional information |
The NRL commemorative dollar series, of which this South Sydney piece is one entry, reflects the Royal Australian Mint's sustained push into licensed sports collectibles — a category that has expanded aggressively since the 2010s as circulation coinage loses transactional relevance. The Rabbitohs hold the distinction of being the oldest surviving club in the NRL, founded in 1908 in the same year the competition itself began.
The "6th Portrait" designation places this among the final coins to carry an effigy of Elizabeth II, who died in September 2022 — meaning this 2024 issue appeared roughly two years after her death, a lag explained by the Mint's multi-year licensing and production pipeline.
