2006 FIFA World Cup Commemorative Silver Coin

The Royal Canadian Mint has struck a 2006 FIFA World Cup Commemorative Silver Coin

The Canadian Soccer Association was founded in 1912 and has affiliations with the Fédération International de Football Association (FIFA). Between 1995 and 2002, there was a fantastic 61 percent increase in the number of registered soccer players in Canada.

In 2006, Germany will host the 2006 FIFA World Cup and the Royal Canadian Mint is issuing a coin to honor the "2006 FIFA World Cup Germany TM"

This coin is a very nice 99.99 percent fine silver, proof-finished coin very nicely presented

The reverse of the coin features a soccer player celebrating the scoring of a goal and the obverse depicts Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II..

This is a very fine coin, especially for Football enthusiasts and the 2006 FIFA World Cup Commemorative Silver Coin will make a fine addition to any coin collection
