| Descrizione del dritto | The concave obverse features a central medallion bearing the sixth and final portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by engraver Jody Clark, shown as a right-facing draped bust wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl necklace with drop earring, with the initials 'JC' incuse below the truncation. The surrounding legend reads 'ELIZABETH II' to the upper left and 'AUSTRALIA' to the upper right, with 'ONE OUNCE .9999 GOLD' inscribed along the lower arc of the inner circle. The broader domed field surrounding the central portrait is elaborately engraved with a panoramic coastal and rainforest scene featuring tropical fan palms, a serpent winding through the foliage, dramatic layered sandstone sea stacks, and dynamic ocean waves crashing at the base, all rendered in high relief. |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The convex reverse depicts an aerial view of the Daintree Rainforest rendered in intricate high relief, dominated by a cluster of vivid green fan palm fronds rendered in applied colour at the centre of the composition, their radiating fronds creating a striking focal point against the polished gold field. Massive rainforest tree trunks rise from the lower field, their textured bark and buttressed roots rendered in exceptional detail, while the upper field features tropical foliage and a small bird perched on a branch amid the canopy. The denomination '$100' appears to the left field, the date '2022' runs vertically along the lower left, and the legend 'DAINTREE RAINFOREST' arcs along the upper rim. The lower segment of the coin features a deeply recessed black-enamelled arc bearing the inscription 'BEAUTY, RICH & RARE' in raised letters, with the engraver's initials 'AS' visible in the lower left field. |

The Daintree is the oldest continuously surviving tropical rainforest on Earth, predating the Amazon by tens of millions of years, and its inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988 came only after a bruising political fight — conservationists had spent years battling Queensland state government plans to extend a coastal road through the forest. The domed format used here is a minting technology that Royal Australian Mint has deployed selectively for premium issues, requiring dies machined to a convex profile that demands significantly tighter tolerances than flat planchet work.
