The 1994 American Gold Commemorative five dollar coin was produced by the US Mint to mark the USA hosting of the FIFA World Cup football tournament for the first time in the country's history.
The Jules Rimet trophy, awarded to the tournament winners, appears on the obverse of the 1994 Half Eagle. This was designed by William J. Krawzcewicz. On the reverse is the 1994 World Cup logo, with laurel leaves flanking the design. This was created by Dean McMullen, and all of the US Mint's 1994 World Cup coins use this reverse design.
Please note: This coin is provided in a protective plastic capsule only. There is no box or certificate.
The 1994 World Cup
The 1994 World Cup was the first to be decided in a penalty shootout, with Brazil beating Italy 3-2 after a 0-0 draw. The result made Brazil the first nation to have won four World Cups. The tournament was also notable for the first appearances of Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Germany since reunification, and the absence of both England - fourth place in the 1990 World Cup - and Denmark, the reigning European champions from 1992.
