| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, after the fourth portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left rim and SOLOMON ISLANDS along the right rim, with the date 2013 positioned below the portrait. The engraver's initials IRB appear in small relief beneath the Queen's truncation. The mirrored proof field contrasts sharply with the finely detailed relief of the bust. |
