Every professional footballer dreams of winning the most prestigious trophy in World Football, the FIFA World Cup. Originally introduced in 1930 as The Jules Rimet Trophy a name derived from the Frenchman who formulated the idea for the tournament, the iconic FIFA World Cup is a global championship in which every four years, 32 national teams compete for the precious gold trophy.

Hosting the tournament this year, and the first Arab world nation to do so, is Qatar. This year's competition is also unique as the tournament is being played during the winter months, instead of the summer.

Whilst originally the prize for this prestigious championship was The Jules Rimet Trophy, the competition has evolved since then with winners of the tournament now presented with a gold trophy depicting two human figures holding the earth on top of their heads the FIFA World Cup Trophy.

The prized official world cup trophy is displayed in stunning detail on the reverse of this commemorative, showcasing the splendour of the trophy in full colour.

An officially licensed FIFA product, this Coin is a superb edition in the new World Cup range and features the official emblem for this years world cup in Qatar on the obverse of the Coin.
