| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of a uniformed Boy Scout standing on rocky terrain, facing left with his right hand raised to his brow in a saluting gesture as he surveys the landscape; he carries a staff in his left hand and a rolled sleeping blanket at his waist, with a knapsack on his back. To the upper left of the figure appears the World Scout Movement fleur-de-lis emblem. In the background, a panoramic scene depicts a mountain range to the left and a church or settlement building to the right. The arc legend YEAR OF THE SCOUT is inscribed above, flanked by the dates 1982 - 1983. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ascension Island, a British Overseas Territory administered jointly with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the BBC World Service relay station that dominated its economy, issued a series of gold commemoratives in the early 1980s tied to international observances — largely targeting the collector market rather than any domestic circulation need. The island's resident population at the time numbered under a thousand. The 1983 International Year of the Scout commemoratives appeared across multiple issuing territories simultaneously, a coordinated licensing arrangement common to this period of Commonwealth numismatic marketing.
KM#5 is a .917 fine gold piece at roughly a half-sovereign weight equivalent — 15.98g places it close to a sovereign-and-a-half by mass.
