Comment

In 2014 the World Cup will be held in Brazil, to which the Spanish national team will go as World Champion, title obtained in the 2010 South African Championship.

Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 2014 FIFA World Cup, which was held in Brazil, but the coin features an image of Juan Carlos I, the former King of Spain, instead of a soccer player or a stadium. This might seem unusual, but it was likely done as a way to honor the King's involvement in promoting sports and his support for the Spanish national soccer team.
