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

According to reports on the internet, the contents of an Olympic Silver Medal are the same as with an Olympic Gold Medal, 92.5 percent pure silver. The Gold Medal is covered by at least 6 grams of gold, according to the Olympic Charter. Some Olympic hosts make the medals larger or smaller according to their respective preferences...but the content must still follow the Charter.
Bronze Olympic medals are typically made of a combination of copper and tin. The specific ratio of copper to tin may vary, but the standard composition for bronze medals is about 90% copper and 10% tin. Additionally, some bronze medals may also contain small amounts of other metals for added durability and to achieve the desired color and finish.
No, Olympic medals are not made of pure gold, silver, or bronze. Gold medals are mostly made of silver with a thin layer of gold plating, while silver medals are typically made of sterling silver. Bronze medals are made of mostly copper with a small amount of tin and zinc.
