| Obverse description | The fourth portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley faces right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. Within the central field, a smaller inset reproduction of the pre-decimal Australian One Shilling coin is depicted, featuring a ram's head in profile. The outer legend reads ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 2016, with the commemorative inscription FIFTY YEARS and the designer's initials IRB present. The design celebrates the 50th anniversary of Australian decimal currency by juxtaposing the pre-decimal and decimal coinage traditions. |
