Beautifully Crafted Winged Victory Design
Obverse: The effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is located on the obverse, surrounded by the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II," "AUSTRALIA," "1 OZ 9999 AG," "2021" and "1 DOLLAR." The portrait is the work of acclaimed artist Jody Clark, a sculptor/engraver for Great Britain's Royal Mint since 2012.
Reverse: The reverse features a dramatic, art deco styled rendition of Nike, as she kneels in respect to an unseen hero, with a victory laurel and sword in hand. "WINGED VICTORY" is inscribed below, with the Perth Mint mark "P" above. The design is credited to American sculptor John Mercanti, the former 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint.
