Brazil's 2014 World Cup produced one of the most politically charged tournaments in recent memory — widespread protests over the estimated R$28 billion in public spending preceded the opening match in São Paulo. The Banco Central do Brasil issued a full commemorative series across multiple designs, of which this is one piece, each tied to a specific aspect of play rather than the tournament as a whole.
KM#696 is among the more common survivors from the set, largely sold directly to collectors rather than released into general circulation.
