The "6th portrait" designation marks a genuine shift: Jody Clark's effigy of Elizabeth II, introduced in 2015, was the last officially approved likeness before her death in September 2022. This coin was struck in 2023, meaning it entered production after the accession of Charles III — yet deliberately retains her image, making it part of a transitional window of Australian issues that will not be replicated.
The gilding on the kookaburra is applied selectively to the Perth Mint's exacting standard, a technique the mint has refined since the 1990s on its bullion and proof programs.
