| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicted with flowing hair pinned in an elegant chignon, wearing a jewelled St. Edward's Crown surmounted by a cross patée. The Queen's draped shoulders are visible at the bust truncation. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine sculptural detail, occupying the majority of the field. The design is framed by a continuous beaded border. |

| Reverse description | Central floral emblematic composition comprising the four national symbols of the United Kingdom — the Tudor rose of England at top, the Scottish thistle to the right, the Irish shamrock to the left, and the Welsh leek below — arranged symmetrically around a central cartouche bearing the platinum fineness inscription. The cartouche reads 'PLATIN 1000/000 100 gr' in incuse lettering. The circumferential legend 'AMOR POPULI PRAESIDIUM REGINAE' (The love of the people is the defence of the Queen) runs around the periphery in raised Latin capitals, all framed by a beaded border. |
