Depicts an official emblem of the Laurent Kabila regime: a mature male lion standing to the left amid grass, symbolizing strength and authority. Above the lion is the country’s name in French, the denomination is placed below.

Kabila’s regime, which began in 1997 after he overthrew Mobutu Sese Seko, was characterized by efforts to rebuild the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire) after decades of dictatorship. His government sought to restore national sovereignty, but faced internal conflict and external pressures, particularly during the Second Congo War.

Depicts two soccer players, one celebrating and the other executing a powerful scissor kick—one of the most striking moves in acrobatic soccer, with the colored Italian flag and the inscription "Italy" alongside the flags of the host countries, South Korea and Japan, positioned to the left of the athletes, surrounded by the tournament title, year and the denomination.

The flag of Italy, known as the Tricolore, features three vertical stripes of green, white, and red, from left to right. It was first adopted in 1797 by the Cisalpine Republic, inspired by the French Tricolore, symbolizing liberty and revolutionary ideals. The flag's colors have various interpretations: green is often said to represent the country's plains and hills, white symbolizes the snowy Alps, and red stands for the bloodshed in Italy's quest for independence and unity. Officially established in its current form by the Italian Republic on January 1, 1948, the Italian flag is a powerful national symbol of unity and identity.
