Additional information

Belize's FIFA World Cup issues from 1994 coincide with the U.S.-hosted tournament — the first held in North America — which drew record attendance figures that still stand. Belize itself has never qualified for a World Cup finals, making this a purely commemorative participation in the commercial wave of licensed issues that flooded the market in the early 1990s.

The KM#123 specification places this among dozens of nearly identical .925 silver commemoratives struck for small Caribbean and Central American nations by contracted European mints, most commonly the Pobjoy Mint or the British Royal Mint on behalf of issuing governments that lacked domestic minting capacity.
