One Dollar 2022 ANZAC Day, Coin from Australia - detailed information

The obverse of the coin depicts the crowned old bust of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the Royal Diamond Diadem crown worn for her Coronation (effigy known as the "Fifth Portrait" worldwide but "Sixth Portrait" in Australia, where the Queen's portrait by Vladimir Gottwald was fifth).

The Queen also wears the Coronation Necklace; originally made for Queen Victoria in 1858, it was also worn at the coronations (as Queen's Consort) of Queen Alexandra in 1902, Queen Mary in 1911 and Queen Elizabeth (the Queen mother) in 1937.

Unlike on British coinage, the effigy is "uncouped" (includes the Queen's shoulders). In small letters on the left, the artist's initials JC (for Jody Clark).

Running continuously around the rim is the monarch's legend, the date of issue and the face value: ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA 2022 · 1 DOLLAR ·.

The coin’s reverse portrays Australian troops climbing the steep mountainous Kokoda Trail in Papua New Guinea. Included in the design is also a stylised motif representing a flaming torch.

Around above in the outer rim, 25 APRIL (ANZAC Day); around below, the the inscription LEST WE FORGET.

On the left, the Perth Mint’s P mint mark. The designer's initials LB (for Lucas Bowers) are in very small letters below right, opposite the T in FORGET.

Finish: Brilliant Uncirculated.
Packaging: the release is mounted on a dark green card featuring a gold coloured emblem mirroring the flaming torch symbol on the coin. The card also features a watermark comprising the words "Lest We Forget" and stylised laurel, a symbol of victory.
