| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, rendered in Raphael Maklouf's third definitive portrait. The Queen is depicted with a pearl necklace and earring, her hair elegantly coiffed beneath the ornate floral crown. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left field, with AUSTRALIA and the date 1992 disposed along the right periphery. The engraver's initials RDM appear incuse on the truncation of the bust. The mirror-polished proof fields provide a sharp contrast to the finely frosted relief of the portrait. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a stylised design commemorating the International Year of Space, depicting an outline map of the Australian continent set against a darkened celestial field. Above the landmass, the stars of the Southern Cross constellation are rendered in high relief, evoking both Australia's national symbolism and the theme of space exploration. A sweeping arc suggestive of an orbital trajectory or satellite path crosses the upper portion of the design. The denomination legend 5 DOLLARS is inscribed in the lower field in a distinctive serif script, with the numeral partially integrated into the decorative composition. The mirror proof finish accentuates the contrast between the polished field and the frosted design elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The International Year of Space designation referenced on this coin corresponds to 1992, which marked the 35th anniversary of Sputnik's launch. Australia had a particular stake in early space history — the Honeysuckle Creek tracking station in the ACT played a critical role in relaying Apollo 11 footage to the world in 1969, and Tidbinbilla remained an active NASA deep-space facility at the time of issue.
