Centennial Olympic Games Emblem (Atlanta 1996) Commemorative Coin "Gymnastics"

The coin features a gymnastic diver in mid-air, surrounded by a laurel wreath on the right. Above the diver's head are the Olympic rings with the text '1896-1996' beneath them, commemorating a century of the modern Olympic Games. On the lower left, there are three stars, and what appears to be abstract representations of motion or ribbons.

This coin commemorates the Centennial Olympic Games held in Atlanta in 1996, marking 100 years of the modern Olympic movement since the first games in Athens in 1896. This particular design likely highlights the sport of gymnastics, which is a core event in the Summer Olympics.

As this appears to be a commemorative coin/medal and not official legal tender with a face value, its value is primarily collectible. If it's gilt bronze or plated, the value would be low, typically $10-$50 depending on condition and demand. If (unlikely, given the common design for such commemoratives) it were solid gold, its value would be tied directly to the gold content plus a small numismatic premium. More information on its metallic composition is needed for an accurate estimate.

Handle the coin by its edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin, which can cause tarnishing. Store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in an archival-safe holder (e.g., non-PVC flip, slab, or capsule) to protect it from environmental damage and physical wear.
