How Much Is an Olympic Gold Medal Worth?

If the International Olympic Committee still gave solid gold medals to first place finishers, medals would be pretty     1     (value). But after the 1912 Games, they made the switch to silver medals coated in gold.

The gold medals for the Tokyo Olympics,     2     (create) by the Japanese designer Junichi Kawanishi, consist of about 6 grams of gold atop about 550 grams of pure silver.     3     gold and silver rates, like stock prices, fluctuate(波动) pretty     4     (frequent), the value of the medal isn’t exactly static(不变的). But in general, it’s hovering(徘徊) somewhere above $800. A silver medal, which     5     (make) up of 550 grams of pure silver, comes in at $462; and bronze medals, mostly copper and a little zinc, are worth just a few bucks.

But Olympic gold medals have value beyond the sum of their parts, and plenty of     6     (athlete) have hocked(典当) them for much more than $800 or so. Mark Wells,     7     member of the “Miracle on Ice” US hockey team of 1980,     8     (sell) his to a private collector,     9     auctioned (拍卖) it off for nearly $311,000 in 2010. Wells’s teammate, Mark Pavelich, made $262,900 off his own medal four years later.

Others end up in the auction circuit long after the original     10     (own) are gone. In 2013, for example, one of Jesse Owens’s gold medals from the 1936 Berlin Olympics sold for about $1.47 million.

5 . Modern Olympics

In the modern Olympics, some things are the same no matter which country is hosting, and some things change. For example, the Olympic symbol is always the same. The five rings stand for the five continents united together. The blue ring stands for Europe, the red ring for America, the yellow ring for Asia, the green ring for Australia and the black ring for Africa.

The Olympic motto, “Faster, Higher, Stronger,” stays the same for every Olympics. And of course, the torch — a symbol of peace, light and friendship — is always there.

However, some things are different. The Olympic slogan, for example, is created by the host city, and it reflects the spirit of those Olympics. Do you remember the slogan for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games? It was “One world, One dream”.

Each host country creates its own mascot and song. The Olympic mascot is often an animal with a national feature. The Olympic songs are always popular around the world. Do you remember the song “You and Me”? It touched many people’s hearts.

Some things have stayed the same, and somethings have changed over the years. But one thing has always been the same — to do the best and to compete fairly.
