Sports are a very popular theme for coins and medals from around the world. Coins have been struck for circulation - typically in base metal(s) - and as non-circulating legal tender (NCLT) for collectors - often in precious metals. And, of course, commemorative medals have celebrated sports and sporting events of all kinds.
Let's see how extensive of a Gallery we can build for Sports-themed coins and medals.

Great idea @commems! I hope that we see some Swiss Shooting medals in this thread (although I don't have any to contribute).

United States Half Dollar 2014 - Baseball Hall of Fame. This coin has an interesting concave / convex shape which nicely emphasizes the glove and ball. This coin was a contest prize courtesy of BH1964, and I really like it. Geaux Tigers! US Half Dollar 2014-D Baseball Hall of Fame
