| Aanvullende informatie |
Hungary's qualification for the 1982 FIFA World Cup in Spain — their seventh World Cup appearance — gave the state mint sufficient political cover to issue this piece ahead of the tournament. The Hungarian national team, historically strong in the 1950s but inconsistent since, would go on to suffer a catastrophic 10-1 group-stage defeat to El Salvador in Elche, still the largest margin of loss in Hungarian international football history.
The .640 silver fineness is characteristic of Hungarian commemorative policy in this period, deliberately lower than the .900 standard used by most Western mints, keeping production costs down on issues primarily targeting the domestic collector market.
