2026 $1 100th Anniversary of HM Queen Elizabeth 1oz Silver Proof Coin

The coin’s reverse includes five effigies of Queen Elizabeth II, each featured on coins produced by The Perth Mint, representing distinct periods of her historic reign. At the centre is the most recent effigy of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Jody Clark (2019), elegantly framed in an ornate design. Surrounding it are four earlier effigies: Ian Rank-Broadley (1998) at the top left, Raphael Maklouf (1985) at the bottom left, Arnold Machin (1966) at the bottom right, and Mary Gillick (1953) at the top right. Together, these portraits reflect the evolving image of the monarch across seven decades of her reign. The background features Australia’s national floral emblem, the golden wattle, symbolising the nation’s connection to the Commonwealth. Arranged clockwise from the top, are motifs of St Edward’s Crown, the Sovereign’s Orb, Tudor rose, and Sovereign’s Sceptre - each signifying key elements of royal tradition and authority.
