| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley, is depicted in right-facing profile, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs across the upper field and 'AUSTRALIA' descends along the right, while the denomination '2 DOLLARS' appears in the lower field flanked by two raised dots. The engraver's initials 'IRB' are incised beneath the truncation of the portrait. The design is framed by a fine inner beaded border running the full circumference of the coin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a detailed rendering of two goats — a standing adult and a smaller companion resting at its feet — set upon a rocky outcrop amid a stylised landscape, commemorating the Chinese Lunar Year of the Goat. An ornate foliate and scrollwork border frames the upper portion of the design, with the Chinese character for 'goat' (羊) positioned to the right within the field. The date '2003' is inscribed vertically along the left side, and the inscription '2 OZ 999 SILVER' appears in the lower field, confirming the coin's bullion specifications. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse composition. |
