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.Coat of arms of Suriname (Source: Wikipedia)
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 1994 FIFA World Cup, which was held in the United States. The coin features a soccer player in action on the obverse, and the reverse depicts the official logo of the tournament. The coin's unique design and limited mintage make it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists and soccer fans.
