| Obverse description | Sixth and final crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, designed by sculptor Justin Clark, depicting Her Majesty wearing the George IV State Diadem and the Victorian Coronation Necklace. This special memorial portrait was adopted following the Queen's passing in September 2022, distinguishing it from earlier standard circulation effigies. The legend arcs around the upper periphery reading ELIZABETH II 1952 - 2022, with AUSTRALIA and the denomination 15 DOLLARS distributed in the field, followed by the engraver's initials JC. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a mirrored or proof-finish field. |

| Reverse description | A detailed depiction of a kangaroo seated in a restful pose, its head turned to glance back over its shoulder, set against a minimalist Australian landscape featuring a eucalyptus tree on the horizon and low native shrubbery in the middle ground. The design is rendered with fine detail in the animal's musculature and fur texture, characteristic of the long-running Perth Mint Kangaroo bullion series. The date 2023 appears in the upper field, with the purity and weight designation 1/10oz 9999 GOLD arcing below, and KANGAROO inscribed prominently across the lower field. The Perth Mint's P mintmark and the designer's initials IJ are also present in the design. |
