Winner's medal from the Berlin 1936 Summer Olympics. Bronze, 55 mm, 76 gm, by Giuseppi Cassioli. The front, inscribed, “XI. Olympiad, Berlin, 1936,” features a ‘Seated Victory’ with the Colosseum in the background; the reverse portrays a winner carried by several jubilant athletes. The bottom edge is stamped, "B. H. Mayer, Pforzheim." With just 320 bronze prizes struck for the '36 Games, this is a scarce, desirable example.
