| Obverse description | Fourth portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, as modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The legend reads 'ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 2 DOLLARS' surrounding the portrait, with the engraver's initials 'IRB' appearing below the truncation of the neck. The design is executed in a refined, naturalistic style consistent with the fourth definitive portrait series adopted by Commonwealth nations. |

| Reverse description | A colourful pad-printed design featuring the badge of the Royal Australian Army Corps at centre, flanked by vignettes of Australian soldiers engaged in United Nations peacekeeping operations, including mine-sweeping, weapons destruction, and humanitarian supply delivery. The scenes are rendered in vibrant colour against a silver field, emphasising the humanitarian and operational roles of Australian Army peacekeepers. A small 'P' privy mark, denoting the Perth Mint, is located beneath the boot of the kneeling soldier on the left side of the design and is notably difficult to discern. The reverse legend reads 'AUSTRALIAN PEACEKEEPERS ARMY' with the date '2005' and the specification '2oz. 999 SILVER' also inscribed. |
