From 1988 to 1998 the portrait of her was by Raphael Maklouf before being replaced in the following year by one sculpted by Ian Rank-Broadley.

In 2024, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, coins with a new obverse featuring the portrait of King Charles III entered general circulation.

[5] Designed by Horst Hahne, the reverse depicts what is meant to be an archetype of an Aboriginal elder.

It features a poppy flower, with the words Lest we Forget and Remembrance Day in the background of the coin.

On 21 June 2013, a third commemorative two-dollar coin was launched by the Royal Australian Mint.

This coin, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, featured a purple circle bordering St Edward's Crown.

It is sunset orange and it features a sun in the centre with birds and the Flanders Field poem in the background.

[11] However, with an uninterrupted milling on the 5-cent, and the 2 dollars having 5 grooves in 4 lots separated by 7 mm length of the side, identification is easy.
