As of February 10, 2014, the value of a 1912 Olympic Gold Medal (which was solid gold and the last time the Olympics distributed solid gold medals) is $984.24... The Gold Medal from the 1912 Olympics held in Stockholm, Sweden weighed in at approximately 24 grams of pure gold. At Auction of course it would be much more valuable because of the historical and sentimental value along with the precious metal.
As the Olympic Gold medals aren't entirely gold, they are around ₤500-₤2000
The pride represented by Olympic medals is priceless, but the medals themselves do have some monetary value. The Olympic Charter's guidelines state that the gold and silver medals must be made of at least 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold medal must contain at least six grams of gold. Therefore the gold medal is worth about $220.00* http://www.savvysugar.com/1870783
