| Obverse description | The third effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as modelled by Raphael Maklouf, is depicted in right-facing profile occupying the central field. The Queen wears the George IV State Diadem and a pearl necklace, with her hair styled in a characteristic formal arrangement. The circumferential legend reads ELIZABETH II to the upper left and AUSTRALIA to the upper right, with the date 1996 positioned at lower right. The initials RDM, denoting the engraver Raphael David Maklouf, appear discreetly within the field. The frosted proof finish imparts exceptional contrast between the raised portrait and the mirror-polished field. |
