The coin's averse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination.

The reverse of the coin depicts a beautifully sculpted portrait of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge cradling and gazing lovingly at their newborn baby. The image is encircled by a sculpted ribbon tied in a bow supporting a delicate bouquet of acorns and fleur de lys - symbols from the Duke and Duchess' Coats of Arms. The inscription IN CELEBRATION OF THE BIRTH OF HRH PRINCE GEORGE, the birth date and The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark are also included in the design.
