| Obverse description | The fourth portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted as a right-facing diademed and draped bust occupying the central field, with the engraver's initials IRB incused below the truncation. The circumferential legend reads ELIZABETH II 1952 - 2022 to the upper left, incorporating her regnal dates in commemoration of her reign, followed by AUSTRALIA and the issue year 2024 to the right. The portrait is rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and jewelled diadem characteristic of the Rank-Broadley effigy used on Australian coinage from 1999. |

| Reverse description | The Commonwealth of Australia Coat of Arms occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield bearing the badges of the six Australian states, supported to the left by a kangaroo and to the right by an emu, both rendered in fine relief against a background of stylised wattle foliage. Above the shield, the seven-pointed Commonwealth Star surmounts a wreath, while below the supporters the denomination numeral 50 appears in large bold figures spanning the lower field. The composition is vigorous and heraldically faithful, based on the design by Stuart Devlin first introduced on the Australian fifty-cent coin in 1969. |
