| Obverse description | The sixth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as designed by Jody Clark, occupies the obverse field, depicting the Queen's right-facing portrait crowned with the George IV State Diadem and adorned with the Victorian Coronation Necklace. The Queen appears in a draped bust composition, rendered in refined relief consistent with the Royal Australian Mint and Perth Mint standard portraiture. The peripheral legend reads ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA, with the denomination 200 DOLLARS and the engraver's initials JC also present in the legend. The portrait conveys regal dignity and closely follows the Ian Rank-Broadley tradition in its fine facial detail and jewel rendering. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed, naturalistic portrait of a koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) seated upright among eucalyptus branches, its forepaws gripping a bough as it gazes forward with characteristically large, alert eyes. The fur texture is rendered with exceptional sculptural depth and realism, conveying the soft, dense coat of the animal. Sprays of eucalyptus leaves frame the composition at the upper left and upper right of the field, contributing to the design's organic, arboreal setting. The arc legend AUSTRALIAN KOALA appears at the top of the coin, while the inscription 2019 2oz 9999 GOLD is placed along the lower exergue. The small letter P mintmark, denoting the Perth Mint, appears to the right of the koala's body near the branch. |
