Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued by Chad in 2002 to commemorate the 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France, even though Chad is not a country known for its football prowess. This highlights the popularity and global reach of the FIFA World Cup, as well as the desire of countries to participate in and celebrate the event in their own way.
