Roald Amundsen reached the South Pole on 14 December 1911, exactly one hundred years before this coin's issue date — the commemorative timing is the entire point. His success over Scott's ill-fated British expedition came down to a single strategic decision: dogs instead of motor sledges and ponies, which failed catastrophically in the Antarctic cold. Amundsen's team ate their sled dogs as they went, reducing the return load and supplementing rations.
Tokelau, a New Zealand territory of three Pacific atolls, has no mint of its own and issues coins primarily as numismatic revenue.
