Participation medal issued for the Sarajevo 1984 Winter Olympics. Bronze, 60 mm x 65 mm, 129 gm, designed by Nebojsa Mitric. The front bears stylized raised text within a circle, “Sarajevo 84,” above the Olympic rings and logo; the reverse is plain with the monogram of the designer. These smaller-sized participation medals were bestowed to athletes and officials, while the large or medium examples were presented to dignitaries and officials, all of which have become increasingly sought-after by collectors.
