| Additional information |
Kazakhstan has no footballing connection to UEFA EURO 2024 — the country's football association transferred from AFC to UEFA only in 2002, and the national team did not qualify for the tournament in Germany. This is a straightforward licensed commemorative, one of dozens issued by non-participating nations whose mints contract with UEFA for the rights to produce bullion and collector issues around major tournaments.
The selective gold plating technique applied here was developed commercially in the 1990s and has since become a reliable revenue driver for sovereign mints targeting the collector market.
