Germany Third Reich Olympiad Berlin Cycling Placzek MS 64 PCGS bronze medal 1936

The 1936 Germany Berlin Olympics Cycling bronze medal, designed by Placzek and certified PCGS MS64, commemorates the Rad-Stern-Fahrt cycling event associated with the XI Summer Olympic Games. The obverse displays five interlocking Olympic rings above long, elegant radiating lines, creating a striking geometric Art Deco composition. The reverse features the Olympic Bell with a German eagle, Olympic rings, decorative Gothic lettering, and the date 1936. This bell became a recognizable symbol of the Berlin Games, representing the international sporting gathering. The 1936 Olympics attracted athletes from around the world but were also exploited for political propaganda by the Nazi regime. Struck in bronze, this PCGS-certified Mint State medal combines historical importance, minimalist artistic design, and distinctive sporting symbolism. Its attractive preservation makes it a fascinating addition to collections of Olympic memorabilia and German historical medals.
