| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central depiction of Sir Winston Churchill standing at a podium, rendered in fine relief against a mirror-like proof field, with a microphone and architectural elements visible to his left. Churchill is shown in formal attire with a bow tie, conveying his role as a wartime statesman and orator. The arc legend CHURCHILL - MAN OF MANY PARTS curves across the upper field, while the birth and death years 1874 and 1965 flank the word STATESMAN along the lower portion of the design. |

Issued in the year marking the fiftieth anniversary of Churchill's retirement from the British premiership, this piece is one of dozens of commemoratives released across British Overseas Territories in 2005 — a year that saw coordinated Churchill issues from Gibraltar, Jersey, Guernsey, and several others. The Falkland Islands authority had particular reason to invoke Churchill's name: his 1982-era political shadow loomed over the islands through Margaret Thatcher, whose decision to defend the territory he would almost certainly have endorsed.
