| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem with pearl and floral ornaments, a pearl drop earring, and a draped neckline with beaded necklace. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II · 2001 · FALKLAND ISLANDS arcs around the periphery, with the denomination · 50 PENCE · inscribed along the lower rim. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a polished field, consistent with the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy style used on Commonwealth coinage from 1998. |
