| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the monarch wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper periphery, with TUVALU and the date 2018 inscribed along the lower periphery. The engraver's initials IRB appear in small relief below the portrait truncation. The field is smooth and polished, with the effigy rendered in fine detail characteristic of Rank-Broadley's fourth definitive portrait. |

| Reverse description | Central design features a stylised, cheerful dog rendered in a cartoonish yet finely struck relief, depicted in a playful bounding pose and holding a decorative tassel ornament in its paw — a traditional symbol of good fortune. To the right of the dog, the Chinese character 福 (prosperity/good fortune) is displayed within a stylised lozenge-shaped tablet. The inscription 1/5oz 9999 GOLD arcs along the upper periphery, the denomination $30 appears in the lower left field, and the Perth Mint's P mintmark is positioned to the upper right of the central motif. |
