Obverse description Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara with drop earring and necklace visible. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left field, with TUVALU to the upper right and the date 2002 at lower right, all in raised Latin lettering. The sculptor's initials IRB appear discreetly below the truncation of the bust. The mirror-polished proof fields provide a strong contrast to the finely frosted relief of the portrait.

Reverse description A boldly rendered left-facing Dromaeosaurus in high frosted relief dominates the central field, depicted in a dynamic, predatory stance with clawed forelimbs extended and jaws open. Behind the figure, the word DINOSAURS is rendered in large, stylized block lettering as a graphic background element. The species name dromaeosaurus appears in small italic text at lower right, above the bold legend DINOSAURS and the denomination Five dollars. Along the left inner border, the inscription 2 OZ .999 SILVER is inscribed vertically in small capitals.
