| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central depiction of four holy figures rendered in a devotional, icon-inspired engraving style against a fine guilloche or engine-turned diamond-pattern background field. The central standing figure of Sophia, mother of the saints, is shown with a nimbus and arms raised in a gesture of blessing or presentation. The three virgin martyrs Faith, Hope, and Charity are arranged around her: two flanking figures and one smaller figure in the foreground, each in classical robes and shown in a reverent, hieratic composition. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Ross Dependency is a Norwegian-claimed territory administered by New Zealand, and coins issued under its name occupy a curious legal gray area — they carry nominal face values but circulate nowhere, existing entirely as numismatic products authorized through New Zealand's minting framework. This particular issue belongs to a series invoking theological virtues, a theme with no territorial or historical connection to the Dependency itself beyond the marketing decision of whoever commissioned the dies.
Scott Base, established on Ross Island in 1957 for the International Geophysical Year, remains New Zealand's only permanent Antarctic presence and the practical reason the Dependency retains any administrative reality at all.
