| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, with a draped neckline, rendered in high relief against a polished field. The circular legend reads ELIZABETH II to the upper left and TURKS AND CAICOS ISLANDS to the upper right, flanking the portrait. The denomination 5 CROWNS appears at the lower left of the field, with the date 1998 positioned to the left of the Queen's neck. The design reflects the third definitive portrait of Her Majesty as used on Commonwealth coinage of this period. |

| Reverse description | Central bust-length portrait of Diana, Princess of Wales, facing slightly left, rendered in a realistic relief style against a polished proof field. To the lower left of the effigy, a detailed Tudor rose with stem and leaves provides an emblematic counterpoint to the figure. The circular legend DIANA PRINCESS OF WALES arcs across the upper portion of the coin, while the commemorative dates 1961-1997, marking her birth and death, appear to the right of the portrait. The composition serves as a memorial tribute to the Princess, combining portraiture with heraldic floral symbolism. |
