| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the fourth portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, rendered in fine relief against a mirrored proof field. The legend ELIZABETH II is inscribed along the left edge of the triangular flan, with AUSTRALIA along the right edge, both following the angled borders of the coin. The date 2017 appears in the lower field beneath the portrait, and the engraver's initials IRB are incused below the truncation of the bust. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Front Line Angels" coin is part of Australia's ongoing commemoration of nurses who served in the nation's military conflicts, a series that has drawn pointed criticism from collectors for its proliferation — the Royal Australian Mint has issued dozens of thematically similar pieces across multiple programs, diluting the significance of any individual release. This particular 2017 issue honors the broader tradition of Australian military nursing, which dates to the Boer War and includes the catastrophic loss of the Vyner Brooke in 1942, when dozens of Australian Army nurses were killed or captured by Japanese forces off Bangka Island.
