Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1983 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Falklands War, also known as the Malvinas War, which was a conflict between Argentina and the United Kingdom over the disputed Falkland Islands, South Georgia, and the South Sandwich Islands. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a depiction of the Falkland Islands on the other, along with the inscription "Falkland Islands 1982" and the coin's denomination, 50 pence.
