| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, faces right wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The legend ELIZABETH II encircles the upper field, with AUSTRALIA 2019 and the denomination 5 DOLLARS distributed around the lower portion of the obverse. The engraver's initials IRB appear truncated below the portrait. The design is rendered in high relief, lending strong sculptural depth to the effigy. |

| Reverse description | A bottlenose dolphin is depicted leaping dynamically from stylised ocean waves, with a radiating sun rendered in the background field, the entire composition executed in high relief to emphasise the movement and texture of the marine subject. The species identification BOTTLENOSE DOLPHIN appears as a legend across the design, while the weight and purity inscription 1 oz .999 FINE SILVER is positioned in the lower portion of the reverse. The interplay of polished and frosted surfaces in the proof finish enhances the contrast between the dolphin, waves, and background elements. |
