The portrait of Queen Elizabeth II used on British and Commonwealth coins changes periodically. The Fourth Portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley has been in use since 1998 and depicts Queen Elizabeth II wearing a tiara rather than a crown.

The only Queen Elizabeth II coins that show her wearing something resembling a crown, a "Diadem", were the Third Portrait coins issued from 1985 to 1997.
