25 Gourdes 1974 World Cup

Haiti's 1974 FIFA World Cup commemorative series was part of a broader wave of Third World nations issuing silver and gold collector pieces through the early 1970s — many coordinated by foreign promoters rather than driven by domestic numismatic demand. The Haitian government under Jean-Claude Duvalier used these issues as hard-currency earners, with most pieces sold directly into the international collector market and never intended for domestic circulation.

KM#103 is one of several denominations in the series struck at the Franklin Mint under contract.
