| Reverse description | A right-facing portrait bust of Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen dominates the right portion of the field, rendered in high relief with fine facial detailing. To the left, a vignette depicts a group of expedition figures planting a flag at the South Pole, evoking the historic achievement of December 1911. The name ROALD AMUNDSEN is inscribed in the lower central field beneath the scene. The curved legend DISCOVERY OF THE SOUTH POLE 100 YEARS 1911-2011 arcs around the upper and lower periphery of the coin. |
