Additional information

Jan Koller scored 55 goals in 91 international appearances for the Czech Republic, making him the country's all-time leading scorer — a record that still stands. This issue belongs to Niue's ongoing practice of licensing its sovereign mint authority for commemorative silver pieces aimed squarely at the collector market, a revenue stream the island has leaned on heavily since the 1990s. Koller's 6'7" frame made him one of the most physically imposing strikers in European football history; Borussia Dortmund built their 2001–02 Bundesliga title campaign substantially around him.
