A stylized globe rendered as a geodesic grid dominates the upper field, set against the goal mouth of a football pitch depicted in vivid green and white enamel. In the foreground, a football rests on the green turf, while a red corner flag is prominently displayed in the left field. The curved legend '2014 FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL' is inscribed along the upper periphery in Latin characters, accompanied by the FIFA trademark symbol. |

| Additional information |
Belarus issued a substantial run of FIFA World Cup commemoratives in the lead-up to Brazil 2014, part of a broader national mint strategy of producing themed silver issues for international collector markets rather than domestic circulation. The National Bank was notably prolific in this period, licensing sports and cultural themes aggressively through the early 2010s.
Color-printed silver issues of this type were struck at the Mint of Poland in Warszawa, which handled much of Belarus's commemorative production during these years under contract.
