Issued in the bicentennial year of Darwin's birth, this piece commemorates the naturalist's direct connection to the Falkland Islands — he visited twice aboard HMS Beagle, in 1833 and 1834, and collected geological and biological specimens that fed into his developing theories. His notes on the islands' geology were published in his 1844 monograph on volcanic islands. The Falklands remain one of the few places in the world that can claim a verified, documented role in the intellectual journey that produced On the Origin of Species.
