Although history tends to focus on the invasion of the Falkland Islands in 1982, it must be remembered that the prelude to this was the invasion of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
A single legal tender commemorative has been approved for release by the Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands which shows a Royal Marine raising the White Ensign at Grytviken in the background is HMS PLYMOUTH with a Wasp Helicopter behind and a Wessex Helicopter in front. 1982 was to become the most significant chapter in H.M.S. Plymouth’s history. She was to take part in every campaign in the Falklands conflict, fire over 900 4.5 inch shells, destroy 5 enemy aircraft and steam a total of 34,000 miles and after the recapturing of South Georgia (the surrender document was signed in her wardroom), H.M.S. Plymouth headed north to join the Task Force.
Approved by Buckingham Palace the obverse of each coin carries a fine effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS FSNAD.
