Winner’s medal issued for the Helsinki 1952 Summer Olympics. Bronze, 51 mm, 59 gm, by Giuseppe Cassioli. The front, inscribed, “XV Olympia, Helsinki, 1952,” features a ‘Seated Victory’ with the Coliseum in the background; the reverse portrays a winner carried by jubilant athletes. Complete with its dark blue velour-lined square case with Olympic rings on the cover. With just 320 of these bronze medals issued at the Helsinki games, this is an uncommon and sought-after example.
