Exquisitely Detailed Imagery
Obverse: The obverse features an off-center inset containing a right facing portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, along with the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA” and “2022.” The effigy is surrounded by a loosely formed wreath composed of Waratah stems and leaves, with three flowers in varied stages of growth, from a tightly closed bud, to partially opened, to a fully blooming blossom. “1 OZ .999 AG” is inscribed. The monarch’s likeness was created in 2015 by renowned British sculptor Jody Clark.
Reverse: On a swirling spiral patterned background, a trio of Waratah flowers are majestically illustrated in full glorious bloom on the reverse, each blossom surrounded by a frame of its traditional jagged edged leaves. The coin’s “ONE DOLLAR” denomination curves below.
