September 3, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

Governor-General Sir Peter Cosgrove has unveiled the new portrait of the Queen which will feature on all Australian coins from next year.<\/p>\n

The new design was launched at the Royal Australian Mint in Canberra on Monday.<\/p>\n

The portrait, which shows the Queen wearing the\u00a0Victorian coronation necklace, was designed by UK engraver Jody Clark.<\/p>\n

The inclusion of a portrait of the serving monarch on the obverse of Australian coins is mandated under the Currency Act 1965.<\/p>\n

Since her coronation in 1953, five effigies of Her Majesty have appeared on Australian coins.<\/p>\n

Previous effigies were designed by Mary Gillick (1953), Arnold Machin (1966) and Raphael Maklouf (1985).<\/p>\n

Since 1998, all Australian coins have used an effigy by Ian Rank-Broadley, except the 2000 50c Royal Visit coin which used a portrait by\u00a0Royal Australian Mint designer Vladimir Gottwald.<\/p>\n

All the portraits of Her Majesty have faced to the right.<\/p>\n

This follows a convention, said to have begun with Charles II (1660-1685), that a new monarch’s portrait should face in an opposite direction to that of their predecessor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
