Territoire Antarctique Britannique/Br. Antarctic Territory.

You will be pleased to know that the British Antarctic Territory (Territoire Antarctique Britannique) has now issued its first medal-coin - a 2 Pounds,which bears the Pobjoy Mint's 'PM' mintmark.
You can see it here; http://www.joelscoins.com/new2.htm .
It is incorrect to say that this is the first Antarctic coin,as the Falkland Islands have been issuing coins & medal-coins intermittently since 1974,& the South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands have had medal-coins struck intermittently since 2000 by the Pobjoy Mint.
Your views please.
