| Additional information |
The Falkland Islands issued a commemorative 50 pence series in 2002 marking the Golden Jubilee of Elizabeth II's reign, with individual pieces depicting scenes of childhood. KM#84.2 distinguishes this piece from the earlier 84.1 variant, a detail that trips up more than a few collectors working the complete set.
