While you can't take home the actual trophy, you can own the beautiful West Point $5 gold commemorative and celebrate this year's 2018 FIFA World Cup Soccer in Russia. Struck in 1994, this limited-edition Proof displays the prestigious trophy. The gold piece is from the only U.S. coin program to honor the first and only time America hosted the World Cup Soccer Playoffs, with 24 different teams participating.


The FIFA World Cup Trophy is one of the most prestigious and sought after in the world. So it is fitting that it's shown on the obverse of this $5 gold piece. Created from 13.6 pounds of 18k gold, the trophy stands 14½" tall and is valued at over $20 million today. (No wonder members of the winning team only get gold-plated replicas.) Struck in 90% gold, this official 1994-W commemorative was issued for one year only! It captures a thrilling, historic event in sports history – World Cup soccer. Bring your "trophy" home now.
