Issued to mark Azerbaijan's hosting of the first European Games in Baku in June 2015, this coin belongs to a series covering individual sports from that inaugural multi-sport event. The European Games were conceived by the European Olympic Committees in 2012 as a regional equivalent to the Pan American or Asian Games — Europe being the last major continent without one.
Azerbaijan secured hosting rights partly through substantial government backing from SOCAR oil revenues, with an estimated expenditure exceeding $1 billion USD on infrastructure and ceremonies alone.
