| Additional information |
Issued to mark Azerbaijan's hosting of the 2015 European Games in Baku — the first edition of that multi-sport competition ever held — this coin appeared as part of a broader commemorative program tied to an event the Aliyev government invested heavily in promoting as a showcase of national prestige. Azerbaijan spent an estimated $8 billion on the Games, a figure that drew significant international scrutiny given the country's human rights record at the time.
