| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a stylized globe centered in the field, showing the continents of Africa and Europe in relief, encircled by an elliptical orbit ring. A football (soccer ball) is shown in motion along the orbital path, positioned to the upper right of the globe, symbolizing the trajectory of the sport on a worldwide stage. The design conveys movement and international reach, evoking the spirit of the FIFA World Cup. The circular legend FIFA FUSSBALL - WELTMEISTERSCHAFT DEUTSCHLAND 2006 - runs around the entire periphery against a finely frosted background, creating strong contrast with the polished inner design. |

| Additional information |
Germany issued this coin two years ahead of the tournament — an unusually long lead time driven by the FIFA licensing window and the Bundesmint's production calendar for the multi-coin commemorative program. Berlin, Dresden, Hamburg, Karlsruhe, Munich, and Stuttgart all struck pieces, making it one of the few modern German silver issues to carry all five active mint marks simultaneously.
