First coin issued for the modern Olympics. 1952 Finland 500 Markkaa. This was a circulating Commemorative coin with a mintage of 586,000. It was over 2000 years prior since a coin was issued for the Olympics.

 

It's funny; I just bid on and lost that coin yesterday.

 

Part of that coin, by the way, was used on a 2002 coin that commemorated the 1952 Summer Olympics.

Oooooooh wow nice @jj00

 

Thanks Angelo!

 

The 1951 issue of the Finnish Olympic 500-markaa commemorative is the spark that eventually lit the modern world's Olympic coin craze, whether issued by the host country or the most remote participant.

 

picked this up a couple days ago...

 

and picked this up yesterday.

 

Great stuff, Chris.

Picked this up last week. Sellers image. Had a 1F, never the 2F.

All original skin, not a cleaning or dip in sight. Better in hand.

 

i have a 1919 one of those incoming mat!

 

Nice, only got 1918 because it was my late grandmothers birth year. Had a 1918 1F the same date so thats why I wanted the 2F the same year.

 

that's a beauty. I have the whole date run. 1919-1937
