Twenty Cents 2020, Coin from Australia - detailed information

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"), and a necklace. Around the effigy is the monarch's legend and the date: ELIZABETH II · AUSTRALIA 2020. Unlike on British coinage, the effigy includes the Queen's shoulders and extends almost to the rim of the coin; consequently, the legend does not run continuously around it.

The artist's initials JC (for Jody Clark) are incuse in tiny letters in the left field of the effigy (on the Queen's right shoulder, near the rim).

A platypus swimming. The denomination numeral 20 [cents] is above the head of the mammal; the artist's initials SD (for Stuart Devlin) are in (very) tiny letters, within the swirl of water around its right forepaw.

Coins dated 2020 were minted and released in October 2019 in Royal Australian Mint sets. Note that these mint sets refer to Jody Clark's portrait of the Queen as her "6th Effigy", which takes into account her effigy by Vladimir Gottwald issued (in Australia only) in 2000.
