| Obverse description | The sixth and final effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by engraver Jody Clark, depicting the right-facing draped bust of the monarch wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl necklace with drop earring. The legend ELIZABETH II and AUSTRALIA arcs around the upper field, separated by a raised inner border, while the denomination 2 DOLLARS appears in the lower field. The engraver's initials JC are incused below the bust truncation. The frosted relief of the portrait contrasts with the mirror-polished field, characteristic of proof coinage. |

| Reverse description | A dramatic close-up depiction of an Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle (Aquila audax) in a dynamic diving posture, rendered in exceptional high-relief detail by engraver Jennifer McKenna. The bird's outstretched wings, intricately detailed feathers, fierce hooked beak, and powerful extended talons dominate the central field, conveying both power and motion. The legend AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE arcs around the upper periphery, with EAGLE descending along the right margin. The lower field bears the inscriptions 2020, 2oz, 9999, and SILVER, with the Perth Mint's P mintmark and the engraver's initials JM also present in the field. |
