With the winter Olympics going on .. might be nice to see some coins.

Posting here in the main forum, hoping to get the
most attention. I know most will be U.S. coins, or think
they will be. But would be nice to see Olympic coins from other countries.

I can start out with a

1964 Tokyo Olympics
1000 Yen

I have not seen the release of nearly as many coins as in previous Olympics. Last time he Olympics were in Canada, he Vancouver games, the Royal Canadian Mint released a set of holograms.

Canada, $1, 2010, still common in circulation. Even more common are the 12 Olympic sports quarters and the 3 Olympic moments quarters (which also come in colourized form).

I have a couple of others from this set, but can't locate them right now.

Muddler -- that $5 gold is one of my favs.

This isn't a coin but still collectible. Its my wife's Olympic torch that she carried prior to the 2002 Olympic games.
