| Reverse description | Central design depicts a three-masted whaling or sailing vessel navigating choppy seas, set against a dramatic backdrop of rugged mountain peaks, evoking the landscape of South Georgia. An oval cameo portrait of a bearded gentleman, believed to be Carl Anton Larsen, founder of the Grytviken whaling station, is superimposed in the upper centre of the scene. The commemorative dates 1904 and 2004 flank the central design at left and right respectively, with the inscription CENTENARY OF GRYTVIKEN arching along the upper border and TWO POUNDS appearing in the lower exergual area. |
