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 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.
