The Cambodia 20 Riels Football World Cup coin, issued in 1991, is a lively silver commemorative dedicated to the XV World Cup of Football held in the United States in 1994. This issue reflects the global excitement surrounding one of the most watched sporting events in history, when football reached new audiences and achieved unprecedented international exposure.

Above is the inscription “State of Cambodia,” and below appears the denomination “20 Riels.” The smooth fields, subtle textures, and raised rim give the coin a clean, official appearance.

Struck in silver, issued in Mint State quality, and certified PCGS MS68, this coin is an appealing collectible for football fans, World Cup memorabilia collectors, and enthusiasts of modern Cambodian numismatics.
