| Reversbeschreibung | A highly detailed depiction of the SS Great Britain, Isambard Kingdom Brunel's celebrated iron-hulled steamship, shown under full sail on open seas with dramatic cloud formations in the background. The ship is rendered with fine engraving, capturing the rigging, masts, and hull in meticulous detail against a frosted relief field. The legend 100 YEARS OF SELF SUFFICIENCY arcs along the upper periphery. The ship's name SS GREAT BRITAIN appears in small lettering above the exergue, while the commemorative dates 1885–1985 are prominently displayed across the lower exergue. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Falklands War of 1982 ended just three years before this issue, and the islands' push toward economic self-sufficiency in its aftermath was a deliberate political response to the vulnerability exposed by the Argentine invasion. London's commitment to defending the territory came with an expectation that the islanders would reduce their dependence on British subsidy — a process already underway through expanded fishing licensing revenues and wool exports.
At 150g of sterling silver, this is a substantial commemorative by any measure, clearly aimed at the collector market rather than circulation.
