Comment

It is not really clear which of these coins (KM#44.1a, KM#44.1b and KM#44.1c) exist and what their weight, size and composition is. Muntalmanak and Krause list different coins with different characteristics.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 1994 FIFA World Cup, which was held in the United States. The coin's design features a soccer player in action, surrounded by the words "WK Voetbal 1994" (Dutch for "World Cup Football 1994"). This coin is a unique collector's item for soccer fans and numismatists alike.
