Coins of most British Commonwealth countries, including Australia, carry a portrait of the reigning monarch on the obverse or front. Since 1953, that is Queen Elizabeth II.
While Australia remains a Constitutional Monarchy, the reigning king or queen will be on all of Australia's coins as the nominal "Head of State" (Queen of Australia). Currently, and since 1953, Queen Elizabeth II has featured on the obverse of all Australian coins.
England does not have its own coins. England is part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The coins used in the United Kingdom and Australia since 1953, all have a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side.
There are no 1953 Jubilee coins. 1953 was the year of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Silver Jubilee was 1977, her Golden Jubilee was 2002.
Such a coin does not exist. Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953 and her image first appeared on coins in 1953.
There have been four portraits of Queen Elizabeth II appearing on the obverse of all Australian general circulation coins from 1953 to present day. The first portrait by Mary Gillick appeared on predecimal coins from 1953 to 1964 inclusive. The second portrait by Arnold Machin appears on decimal coins from 1966 to 1984 inclusive. The third portrait by Raphael Maklouf appears on decimal coins from 1985 to 1998 inclusive. The fourth portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley appears on decimal coins from 1999 to present day.
That depends on the denomination and the date. Queen Elizabeth II has appeared on all Australian coins since 1953.
The first coins featuring Queen Elizabeth II were released in 1953.
The new monarch is typically featured on new coins starting the following year. For example, Elizabeth II became queen in 1952, and was shown on coins starting in 1953.
The Royal Mint does not issue Commemorative copper coins. The only Queen Elizabeth II commemorative coin issued in 1953 was the cupro-nickel Coronation Crown.
Queen Elizabeth II has appeared on the obverse of all Australian coins since 1953. The Australian One Pound note featured Queen Elizabeth II from 1953 until their last printing prior to the introduction of decimal currency. All years of issue of the Australian One Dollar note featured Queen Elizabeth II until the final issue in 1982. With the exception of the 2001 Centenary of Federation Five Dollar note, all Australian polymer Five Dollar notes have featured Queen Elizabeth II from 1992 to present.
