Uganda issued a run of celebrity-themed collector pieces in the mid-2000s, targeting the novelty gift market rather than serious numismatic buyers. Keegan's inclusion likely traces to his high-profile tenure as England manager, which ended abruptly in October 2000 after a qualifying loss to Germany at Wembley — his last match in the role.
Silver-plated copper-nickel on a 39mm flan is the standard substrate for this class of souvenir issue, produced by private mints under license rather than at the Bank of Uganda's own facilities.
