| Obverse description | The obverse features the sixth and final official effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark, depicting a right-facing crowned portrait of the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl drop earring with a pearl necklace. The Queen's mature likeness is rendered in fine relief with carefully detailed hair and crown ornamentation. The engraver's initials 'JC' appear below the portrait. The circular legend reads 'ELIZABETH II' above and 'AUSTRALIA' to the right, with the denomination '25 DOLLARS' inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed depiction of an adult kangaroo standing upright in a natural bush setting, accompanied by a small joey positioned at its side, with stylised fan palms flanking the composition on both sides. The design, attributed to artist Aleysha Howarth (initials 'AH' visible in the field), conveys a sense of naturalism and depth through finely engraved fur texture and ground shading. The legend 'AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO' arcs prominently across the upper field in bold lettering against a polished background. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark appears to the left of the kangaroo. Along the lower exergue the inscriptions '2020 1/4oz 9999 GOLD' confirm the date, weight, and fineness of the bullion coin. |
