Obverse description Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, pearl drop earrings, and a pearl necklace, rendered in the fourth definitive portrait attributed to Raphael Maklouf. The legend '180 DOLLARS' runs along the left edge and 'ELIZABETH II' along the right edge of the Reuleaux triangular flan, both following the contour of the rope border that frames the inner field. The date '1996' appears in the lower exergue beneath the portrait. The coin's distinctive triangular form mirrors the shape of the Bermuda Triangle itself.

Reverse description Within a twisted rope border following the Reuleaux triangular outline of the coin, the reverse displays a detailed relief map of the Bermuda archipelago positioned centrally in the field, with a distressed sailing vessel — rendered with full rigging and sails — depicted in the lower right, appearing to founder in rough seas. Above and to the left of the map, an elaborate compass rose with a fleur-de-lis north point is set against a grid of rhumb lines radiating across the field, evoking historic nautical charts. The legend 'BERMUDA' is inscribed along the lower edge in incuse lettering.
