Michael Phelps has 22 career Olympic medals (18 of which are gold) in swimming.
The second most awarded Olympic medalist is Larisa Latynina (gymnastics), with 18 (9 gold). Latynina still holds the record for most Olympic medals in individual events (14 to Phelps' 13). However, Phelps has already qualified for the 2016 Olympics and stands a reasonable chance to at earn at least a bronze in more than one individual event there; while Latynina (who was born in 1934) is still living, it's unlikely that she will compete in any future Olympiads.

Olympic gold metals are no longer made of solid gold. They do still contain gold, but are made of mostly silver.

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.
