On the reverse of the coin, the Ox is displayed in a beautiful relief sculpture.

Either side of the ox are bamboo plants and to the right at the top is the Chinese character for ox and beneath that is the name in English with the year of issue underneath.
The obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark. The legend on this side shows the coin's weight, purity, and a face value of 200 AUD as legal tender in Australia.
