| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a football (soccer ball) in dynamic motion entering a goal net, rendered in bold relief with detailed hexagonal panel surface. A curved arc of five-pointed stars sweeps across the upper right field, referencing the Southern Cross constellation and evoking the Brazilian national flag. The denomination 10 REAIS is inscribed in two lines at the upper left of the field, with the date 2014 positioned in the lower right. The composition conveys a sense of movement and sporting energy within a minimalist, modern numismatic design. |

| Additional information |
Brazil's hosting of the 2014 FIFA World Cup triggered one of the most extensive numismatic programs the Casa da Moeda do Brasil had undertaken in decades, spanning gold, silver, and bimetallic issues across multiple years leading up to the tournament. This gold piece sits at the low end of that program's weight range, positioning it as an accessible bullion-adjacent collectible rather than a prestige issue.
The tournament itself was plagued by construction delays, widespread protests over public spending, and the infamous 7–1 semifinal defeat to Germany — the worst loss in Brazilian football history. Collector demand dried up noticeably in the domestic market following that result.
