| Obverse description | The fourth crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley is depicted in right-facing profile, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The legend ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 500 DOLLARS encircles the portrait, with the engraver's initials IRB appearing below the truncation of the bust. The design presents a dignified and finely detailed likeness consistent with the standard Ian Rank-Broadley portrait used on Australian coinage from 1999. |
