The Brazilian Olympic Medals

The Brazilian Olympics will have the heavier medal in history, 500g (In London the heavier was 400g):
Gold Medal: 494g of silver (purity: 92,5%), and 6g of gold (purity: 99,9%)
Silver Medal: 500g of silver
Bronze Medal: 475g of copper (97%), 25g of zinc (3%)

In London the gold medal had 1,34% gold, 92,5% silver and the rest of copper.

More than 30% of the silver and the bronze are recycled.
The ribbons are made of almost 50% recycled plastic.
The paralympic medals, for the first time, will have guizos and braille writings.
It was produced 5.130 medals, 2.488 olympic and 2.642 paralympic.
They are fairly bulged with a thicker centre. In the edges it's written the modality.

The art of the olympic medals brings the goddess of victory, Nike, and the Panathinaikos from Greece. In the verse there's a laurel wreath and the Rio 2016's logo. In the Paralympic there's the paralympic's logo and the on one side and the braille inscription on the other.

For the first time in history each medalist will receive also a sculpture.
[Fun fact: Did you know that Brazil has two official languages? Portuguese and Libras.]

Olympic medals

Translation of OP's text:
All the medals are made of papier-mâché

Paralympic medals

only 6g of gold in the actual gold medal?

what a rip off

those are terrible

these look like some cheap plastic shit you woudl find in a mcdonald's happy meal.

>The paralympic medals, for the first time, will have guizos and braille writings

not so fast hue bro

theyre for retards, most of them will end up in a toy box next to some mega blocks or covered in drool

That's how one receives a medal

Mixing up the Paralympics and the Special Olympics m8. Two completely different competitions. Keep being stupid maple syrup fag

train all your life and you get only 260 dollsrs worth of gold

can you eat this brown stuff around the medals or what is??

nvm add the 300 dollars from the 494 grams of silver

it's to make them look like useless rocks to pickpockets.

wood from sustainable environmental management areas

that's made of "freijó", a typical brazilian wood

olympia should give medalists guns to shoot pickpockets.

looks pretty neat, i somehow get an urge to chew on it. looks so damn good.

Wew, it's not like any of us gave a fuck about what the medals are made of. So fuck off, 7-1.

ya i don't really know what past medal compositions have been but i suppose i can't really be surprised

at least they use silver as the alloy but it's basically a silver medal dipped in gold

>Wew, it's not like any of us gave a fuck about what the medals are made of

Yeah, because you won't be winning any of them.

I thought Britbongs were supposed to be atleast decent at banter. I guess the multiculturalism is killing your shit after all.

This is a very rude post. Delete it and apologize!

NO.

Your fellow countryman gives effort to inform us about your olympia and you insult this. You are a very very bad person and should be ashamed!

Are these the athletes village poo bins?

yeah huh and uh
ah
uhm
you're waifu a shit

Gold is never coined pure, that's a too soft metal and would knead, if you have any gold jewelry it's rarely pure.

let him be, for some people it's useless trying to create an intelligent dialogue

the banter in this thread is absolutely awful, step it up please senpais this hurts to read

yeah but OP post say 99,99 purity

Did you know that despite being used brazilian wood those cases () were created in Portugal?

inb4 someone has their medal stolen

oh i like that idea

if you place first in your event, you get a golden gun like that guy from the james bond movie

I didn't, thats pretty neat.

That pattern did look pretty familiar to me actually

My waifu Shinku is known throughout all continents, to children and old men alike. Meanwhile, I see yours for the first time ever if that's her.

I had to google this bitch up and still don't know who the fuck this thing is.

Any one else collecting the Olympic Currencies? I spent the last year catching 'em all.

>he went and collected 27 coins
congratz nig, you now have 27 reais

>no value whatsoever

ignorance at its finest
you don't even know how many there are.
just shut up and please don't comment anymore

Subhumans are subhumans, same shit.

Leave this thread and never come back.

>triggered negrinho do pastoreio
wewlad go steal some cellphones for living or something

Are they literally a currency? Like made of silver? That would be quite neat actually.

Yeah it's those bullion bullshit, but it's collector coins, it's not like you'll spend 200+ reais to claim it's 20 reais monetary value.

>make super expensive medals for the kudos knowing your slum monkeys will mug all the athletes, get the medals back and return their value to the the economy

Huenomics in full force

Well, it does have patrician design.

>implying the slum monkeys are looking for anything else other those limited edition samsung phones they are handing to athletes

1 euro is nice coin but the rest are shit and the notes are literally monopoly tier.

>Tfw 50p master race

And they all come with sickness and retarded children.

just the smallest ones (R$1,00), for the big ones it's prohibited to use as actual currency. the big ones though really do have gold and silver in their composition.

p.s.: for anyone knowing someone who's going to Rio, don't hesitate to ask them to bring you a bunch of it - collectors in your country will really appreciates that

miamiherald.com/news/health-care/article66790817.html
Joke's on you.

The only joke here, is your cities.

says the monkey

Wait, all you have to say is that Rio is shit? It's not like this is big news or anything.
>jej

And economy, and corruption, and pollution, and construction, and their soccer team.

silver coins

gold coins

Your whole country, is shit. Like the water, full of shit.

lmao did they run a locomotive over the medals before awarding them?

some of the lead coins (actual currency - R$1,00)

Can you even attend school in a favela that gets washed away 60 times a year monkey boy?

Only thing strong about Brazil is the smell

>literally trigged by a .jpg
wewlads, don't even get me started on DOOPposting

t. 1 euro coin

there are also postage stamps for collectors

Would buy this shit... if I were to attend one of the events. Which is not happening because Rio was a mistake.

Hey, hey Tyrone;
>DOOP

sad story

Those recycled metals look cheap

>[Fun fact: Did you know that Brazil has two official languages? Portuguese and Libras.]
pls like my country

Just edit it on GIMP and it will just look fine, Tyrone.

XXXI > XXX

they look like chocolate coins

To the people that think that wood case looks like a piece of junk from the 1970s that you'd buy for 50 cents at the thrift store...the purpose of it is just to hold and protect your Olympic Medal for your plane flight home.
>As for me, I'd frame my Olympic Medal something like this, but using a much more high quality frame, matte and backdrop

this shit does look nice

That's the other reason i like how cheap and unassuming those wooden cases for the Olympic Medals look, I'm just going to be using it to hold and protect my Medal for my trip home, i don't want anything nice-looking that could attract negative attention from people who would want to swipe my Medal

Doesn't matter, you don't have whites in your cunt tree

>Calling anyone cuck

Don't you have Athletes to rob hue?

No, read the op:
