| Additional information |
The Falkland Islands maintain their own currency partly as a matter of administrative distinctiveness — the Falkland pound, pegged at parity with sterling, is not legal tender in the UK, a deliberate asymmetry that runs in one direction only. Jody Clark's fifth portrait of Elizabeth II, introduced across Commonwealth territories from around 2015, reached the Falklands coinage gradually, with some denominations updated later than others.
KM#203 represents the Islands' adoption of the Clark effigy for this denomination, completing the portrait transition across the circulating series.
