| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem and a pearl drop earring with matching necklace, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The portrait, consistent with the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy used on Commonwealth coinage from 1998, shows fine detail in the hair and crown. The circular legend HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II · TDC runs along the upper periphery, with the date 2015 positioned in the lower exergue. The coin's rim is bordered by a fine denticular pattern. |

| Reverse description | Central color-printed photographic portrait of a young Queen Elizabeth II, depicted in three-quarter view facing slightly left, wearing a light-blue coat and matching hat. The image captures the Queen in a relatively informal outdoor setting, conveying a mid-twentieth-century regal elegance. The surrounding legend, rendered in raised Latin lettering against a gold-plated border, reads HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II · 1952 · FIVE POUNDS · 2015 ·, referencing both the year of her accession and the issue date. The contrast between the vivid color photograph and the polished gold border creates a distinctive commemorative aesthetic. |
