| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dynamic football scene in the central field, depicting a crowd of spectators in traditional and modern dress cheering before a goal net, with a football in mid-flight and a stadium rendered in the lower right quadrant, all set against a calligraphic Arabic background. To the right, an Islamic geometric star-pattern border panel complements the decorative theme. Along the upper periphery, the Arabic legend 'كأس العالم FIFA قطر' (FIFA World Cup Qatar) arcs above the design, with the Eastern Arabic date '۲۰۲۲' appearing at upper left. The denomination '5 RIYALS / ريالات 5' is inscribed at the base, flanked by the series designation 'Am' (Amazing) in the lower field. |

| Additional information |
Qatar's Central Bank has issued a number of commemorative silver pieces in recent years tied to the country's accelerating international profile, most visibly the 2022 FIFA World Cup — the first held in the Middle East and the first in November–December rather than the traditional summer schedule, shifted to avoid Qatar's extreme summer heat. Whether this piece relates directly to that event isn't confirmed by the KM reference alone, but the timing is not coincidental.
