Laos had no footballing connection to the 2010 World Cup — no qualification campaign, no historic involvement — making this one of hundreds of identical licensing arrangements that flooded the market as South Africa's tournament approached. The Bank of the Lao P.D.R. was among dozens of issuing authorities that contracted through coin marketing intermediaries, producing pieces destined almost entirely for collector sets rather than circulation.
