| 背面描述 | A group of six polar explorers clad in heavy Antarctic expedition gear, equipped with skis and sledge poles, stands prominently in the central field before the rigging and hull of the RSS Discovery moored against an icy backdrop. The scene is rendered in high relief with exceptional sculptural detail evoking Scott's heroic Antarctic expeditions. The curved legend 1868 • ROBERT FALCON SCOTT • 1912 arcs around the upper periphery, flanked by the explorer's birth and death years in cartouches at left and right. The denomination £2 appears in the lower exergue. |

The British Antarctic Territory is one of the few remaining places where Britain maintains an active territorial claim overlapping a competing one — Argentina and Chile both assert sovereignty over portions of the same landmass. Coins issued under this authority carry legal tender status but circulate nowhere; the research stations that constitute the territory's only human presence run on entirely different economics.
Scott reached the South Pole on 17 January 1912, only to find Amundsen's Norwegian flag already planted there. He and his four companions died on the return march, with the last diary entries dated around 29 March.
