| Obverse description | The obverse features the second effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, modelled by Arnold Machin, depicted as a right-facing draped bust wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left field, while FIJI and the date appear along the right field. The portrait is rendered in fine relief with naturalistic detail in the Queen's hair and drapery, consistent with Machin's celebrated sculptural style. |
