Additional information

Issued in 2002 as part of a broader Falkland Islands commemorative program, this colored copper-nickel piece reflects the islands' use of small-denomination commemoratives to generate collector revenue — a fiscal strategy that has sustained the Falkland Islands Government's coin program since the early 1980s. The applied color process, common to this era of Commonwealth peripheral issues, was done post-strike rather than at the mint, a distinction that affects long-term surface stability.
