In the central part is a shield bearing the heraldic depiction of the Australian coat of arms. To the left and right of the shield are images of Australian fauna - a Kangaroo on the left and an Emu on the right, supporting the shield and standing on grass, below which is a ribbon with the English inscription "ADVANCE AUSTRALIA". Above the shield is a rope-like line, and above that, a seven-pointed star. Along the upper edge arc is the inscription "THREE PENCE". Below is the issue date "1915", placed between two heraldic tridents. The coin's edge features decorative denticles.

In the central part is the left-facing profile of King George V of England. Along the edge arc from left to right runs the Latin text "GEORGIVS V D. G. BRITT: OMN REX F. D. IND: IMP:", which translates to "GEORGE V, by the Grace of God, King of all the Britains, Defender of the Faith. King and Emperor of India". Below is a dot. The coin's edge features decorative raised denticles.
