| Additional information |
Issued by the Maldives Monetary Authority well ahead of the tournament itself — 2012, two years before the Brazil event — this is a straightforward commercial commemorative aimed at the collector market rather than circulation. The Maldives had no qualification history for the 2014 World Cup and no meaningful footballing connection to the event.
