The obverse shows the crowned mature head of Queen Elizabeth II facing right (her effigy known as the "Fourth Portrait"). The Queen wears the "Girls of Great Britain and Ireland" diamond tiara, a wedding gift from Queen Mary (Her Majesty's grandmother) in 1947 - which she also has on the Machin and the Gottwald portraits.

In small letters below the head, the artist's initials IRB (for Ian Rank-Broadley).

Around the effigy is the monarch's legend and the date: QUEEN ELIZABETH II TUVALU 2017.

The coin’s reverse depicts a rooster holding a flower bulb on which is inscribed the Chinese character for "longevity": 壽 (Shòu).

Around above, the precious metal content: 1/5oz 9999 GOLD (one fifth of an ounce of 99.99% gold).

To the right of the rooster, the face value $30 (thirty dollars). On the left, the P mint mark of the Perth Mint. The designer's initials TV (for Thomas Vaughan) are below, on the rooster's spur.
