Notice that the Ascension Island fake can't even get the letters right: "Elizabeth U" and "PENOE".

I do not recall ever seeing the Berry portrait before. To me it just does not look like her.

The design was unique to New Zealand and depicted the Queen wearing the Russian Fringe Tiara, which was originally given by the "Ladies in Society" to Queen Alexandra on her Silver Wedding anniversary in 1888. Berry completed more than 1,000 stamp and coin designs in his lifetime.
