| Obverse description | The obverse features the sixth and final official effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as designed by Jody Clark, depicting a right-facing draped bust of the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl drop earring with a pearl necklace. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a polished field, with the engraver's initials 'JC' incused below the bust truncation. The legend 'ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA' curves along the upper periphery, while the denomination '30 DOLLARS', the purity '9995 Pt', the weight '1/3 oz', and the date '2019' are inscribed in the lower field flanking the portrait. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts two humpback whales rendered in high sculptural relief, evoking the waters of the Australian Antarctic Territory. A large adult whale dominates the lower and central field, shown in a graceful swimming posture with its characteristic long pectoral fins and barnacle-textured skin finely detailed. A smaller whale, presumably a calf, is portrayed breaching above and to the upper right, with water droplets suggested around its flukes. The legend 'HUMPBACK WHALE' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'AUSTRALIAN ANTARCTIC TERRITORY' curves along the lower border; the date '2019' appears on the left and the Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark is visible to the right of the design. |
