| Aanvullende informatie |
McMurdo Station operates under the United States Antarctic Program and has no sovereign authority to issue currency — these tokens were produced as a novelty scrip for use within the station's recreational facilities, not as any form of legal tender. The "Antarctica" issuer designation is a cataloging convenience, not a governmental reality. X# prefixes in Krause indicate exactly this: exonumia, trade tokens, or fantasy issues outside mainstream national coinage.
The 1987 date places production during a period of significant McMurdo expansion, when the station population regularly exceeded 1,000 personnel during summer operations.
