The United States Olympic Committee was formed in 1894, just two years ahead of the modern revival of the Olympic Games. The first Olympic Games were held in the city of Olympia, Greece around the year 776 BC. More than 2,000 years later, the games were revived for modern nations of the world to participate in. Those first games were held, appropriately, in the city of Athens, Greece.
On the obverse of these 1 oz Silver US Olympic Team Rounds you’ll find the image of the US Olympic Team heritage mark. This mark includes the words “Team USA” in the very center with the formation year of 1896 below it. These engravings are surrounded on two sides by olive branches that form a U-shaped wreath. The outer design rim on the obverse surface includes two stars, one on either side, and the words “.999+ Fine Silver” above and “One Troy Ounce” below.
The reverse of the US Olympic Team Round includes the design of the United States Olympic Committee’s emblem. This emblem includes a representative version of the flag of the United States of America on top and the five interlocking Olympic rings below. Though the flag takes on the familiar design of the US flag, it is not an exact replication as it does not have 50 stars included. The outer design rim on the reverse surface also includes an engraving of two stars, with added engravings of “United States” above and “Olympic Team” below.
