Beschrijving voorzijde Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a tiara and pearl earring, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The portrait is executed in the style associated with the Ian Rank-Broadley likeness. The encircling legend reads 'HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II · TDC' along the upper arc, with the date '2014' positioned centrally below the effigy. The square flan features rounded corners and a reeded border.

Beschrijving keerzijde Three-quarter bust portrait of the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan facing slightly left, bearded and wearing a broad-brimmed hat with a medallion pendant at his chest. Behind him, a large ship's helm occupies the centre of the field, with a detailed depiction of a full-rigged sailing vessel rendered to the left. The legend 'ONE CROWN' appears along the upper left border and 'FERDINAND MAGELLAN' along the upper right, both following the square flan's diagonal orientation. The mirror-polished field provides strong contrast against the raised design elements.

Aanvullende informatie

Tristan da Cunha holds a legitimate claim to Magellan's story that most issuing territories cannot: the archipelago sits almost directly on the route his fleet used during the 1519–1522 circumnavigation, making it geographically relevant rather than a purely commercial choice. The island group's British administration has issued commemoratives through the Pobjoy Mint for decades, and this piece falls squarely within that ongoing program.

Silver-clad copper-nickel was a cost-conscious specification that allowed retail pricing well below a sterling silver issue while retaining surface appearance. KM# 102 sees consistent secondary market indifference — the Magellan theme was crowded in 2014, with multiple competing issues from other territories marking the circumnavigation anniversary cycle.
