Winner's medal awarded to a member of the Austrian four-man bobsleigh team at the Grenoble 1968 Winter Olympics. Silver, 60 mm, 115 gm, by Roger Excoffon, Paris. The front, inscribed, "Xemes Jeux Olympiques D'Hiver, Grenoble 1968," features the Olympic rings; the reverse identifies the sport as “Bobsleigh,” with a stylized rendering of the sport. Complete with the original colorful ribbon (detached at the seam) and the original black leather presentation case. The Grenoble winner's medals were the first to feature a unique design on the reverse for each sport. A scarce example with just 250 silver medals struck in total.
