Description of obverse and reverse
Coin’s obverse features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II effigy sculpted by Ian Rank-Broadley. 

Coin’s reverse features highly detailed design elements drawn from AC/DC’s impressive collection of album artworks. Rendering this design in a striking new light, each Fine Silver Proof coin is struck on a custom nickel plated (black) triangular blank with a striking colour printed logo.
A brief annotation
To celebrate Australia’s premier rock band AC/DC turning 45 in 2018, the Royal Australian Mint presented its first ever nickel plated coin. Not only black, this innovative coin, minted on our sought-after triangular blank, has its design inverted for the first time to resemble a guitar pick and is finished with AC/DC’s high voltage logo in vibrant colour print.
