| Obverse description | Two conjoined effigies of Queen Elizabeth II in right-facing profile are depicted at centre: in the foreground, the mature crowned portrait of the Queen wearing a diadem and pearl drop earrings with a pearl necklace, after the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy; behind and slightly offset, a younger uncrowned portrait of the Queen, evoking an earlier period of her reign. The surrounding legend reads ELIZABETH II to the upper left, 2012 at the top, and ASCENSION ISLAND to the upper right, all incuse against a smooth field. |

| Reverse description | A three-quarter facing portrait of a young Queen Elizabeth II occupies the centre of the reverse field, depicted with curled hair and wearing a pearl necklace and a low-cut gown, evoking an early post-coronation image of the monarch. The denomination £2 appears to the left of the effigy in the field. The curved legend LIFE OF QUEEN ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper periphery. The Pobjoy Mint mark is visible at lower right of the portrait. |
