| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait, showing the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper periphery, with TUVALU and the date 2013 inscribed along the lower periphery. The designer's initials IRB appear truncated below the portrait. The plain field imparts a clean, regal appearance characteristic of Perth Mint proof coinage. |

| Reverse description | Central design depicts a stylised snake whose sinuous body is arranged to form the Chinese character 壽 (Shou), meaning longevity and success, rendered in an ornate openwork manner with decorative scale patterning. Two peach blossoms, traditional symbols of good fortune, are positioned at the lower left of the character. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark appears to the right of the central device. Along the lower periphery, the inscription 1/5oz 9999 GOLD $30 confirms the coin's metal content, fineness, and denomination. |
