Common across Commonwealth jurisdictions. The stamp normally carries the name, the words "Commissioner for Oaths", the commission details and a date line, because an affidavit has to record when it was sworn.
Estamplab is a design tool. What a notarial or legal mark must carry is set by the authority that issued the commission or the appointment, and it differs sharply between jurisdictions, so check your own paperwork before relying on any layout here. This page describes common practice rather than giving legal advice. Only produce a mark you hold the authority to use: a stamp in the name of an office you do not hold is forgery.
