There are many Olympic medals online like Ebay that are being sold. However, these medals are not true authentic medals because they are fall into two different categories. One type of medal is the one that is not a true medal, but one that is a replica and represents simply the site and year of that Olympics. It was not one awarded to an athlete. The other type of medal on Ebay and some other sites if a participation medal. These medals are not gold, silver or bronze medals.
Instead, they are the medals that are awarded to each individual that participated in the Olympics. These medals may or may not be authentic either and they sell for around thirty dollars are higher. Four Olympians have sold their medals between 17,000 and 300,000 dollars.
