| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted as a right-facing crowned bust with elaborately rendered hair. The Queen wears the diamond diadem and a pearl earring, with fine detail in the coiffure achieved through deep relief characteristic of piedfort striking. The encircling legend reads ELIZABETH·II·D·G REG·F·D·2009, and the engraver's initials IRB appear incuse below the truncation. The highly polished proof fields provide strong contrast to the finely frosted portrait. |
