| Additional information |
France has no competitive stake in the 2026 tournament — the coin is a licensing arrangement, not a national celebration. Monnaie de Paris has issued FIFA-branded gold in this weight class before, most notably for the 2018 World Cup held on French soil, where the institutional connection was at least geographically coherent. Here, it is straightforwardly commercial.
The 155.5g specification places this at exactly five troy ounces.
