| Additional information |
Suriname's 1994 World Cup commemorative program was issued in two variants distinguished by the positioning of the "999 EP" fineness notation — a detail that generated collector confusion almost immediately, since the coin is silver-plated brass, not .999 silver. The "999 EP" designation refers to the electroplating quality, not metal purity. KM#43.1 carries this notation at right, differentiating it from KM#43.2.
