On the reverse is a clever and curious rat climbing through a bunch of lucky lychees. Inscriptions on this side are "YEAR OF THE RAT," ".9999 AU," plus the weight and Chinese symbol for the rat. The obverse showcases an Ian-Broadley design of Queen Elizabeth II wearing her crown. The 12 animals from the lunar calendar wheel prance around her. Inscriptions include "ELIZABETH II" and "AUSTRALIA 2020" with the coin's denomination.  

According to Chinese legend, the animals are in this order because of a race on the river. The rat won—tricking the cat after they both rode the ox to the finish — an intelligent rat, much like the people of this sign.
