Two Dollars 2020 Olympic - Dedication (Green), 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The Queen also wears the Coronation Necklace; originally made for Queen Victoria in 1858, it was also worn at the coronations (as Queen's Consort) of Queen Alexandra in 1902, Queen Mary in 1911 and Queen Elizabeth (the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 2020 · 2 DOLLARS ·.

At its centre, the coin features the logo of the Australian Olympic Committee. Surrounding that central circle, a stylised border consisting of a pattern of light and dark green blossom flowers, positioned over four concentric circles.

Around above, the inscription 2020 AUSTRALIAN OLYMPIC TEAM. Around below, DEDICATION.

The value and denomination are on the obverse.

The coin designs were approved by the Assistant Treasurer in Currency (Australian Coins) Amendment (2019 Royal Australian Mint No. 6) Determination 2019 on 23 October 2019.
