Additional information

Nelspruit — now officially known as Mbombela — hosted matches during the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, and Fiji's Reserve Bank issued this piece as part of a broader commemorative program tied to that tournament. Fiji has no footballing connection to the event; the series was a straightforward revenue exercise, aimed squarely at the thematic collector market rather than circulation. Trimetallic construction at this diameter and weight puts it firmly in the category of coins minted to impress on the shelf rather than pass through a till.
