How many meadls were wone altogether in the 2012 Olympics?

Answer 1

The medals at the London 2012 Olympic Games will be awarded during a total of 302 Victory Ceremonies, taking places at venues across the UK.

962 medals as counted on the medal table.

The actual number of medals distributed seems to be a secret. I guess there were some unknowns going into the Games, because of the possibility of tied bronze medals and a variable number of athletes used in relay heats/finals.

The medals have been designed by David Watkins, an established artist in the field of decorative art, and are in production at the Royal Mint headquarters in Llantrisant, South Wales.
