| Reverse description | Two football players are depicted in dynamic relief in the central field, contesting possession of a football shown at their feet, rendered in a vigorous sculptural style against a mirror-like proof background. A decorative border of raised dots frames the design along the left and right periphery. The legend COPA MUNDIAL DE LA FIFA arches along the upper portion of the coin, while ALEMANIA and the year 2006 appear in the lower field, all inscribed in bold Latin lettering. |

| Additional information |
Paraguay qualified for the 2002 World Cup but failed to reach the 2006 tournament in Germany, making this commemorative — issued three years before the event — a notable case of anticipatory optimism. The coin was produced as part of a wave of FIFA-licensed issues sold globally through numismatic channels, bearing no meaningful connection to Paraguay's actual footballing fortunes that cycle.
