The IOC is not in the minting business ![]() Each host country is responsible to provide the necessary precious metal and to mint the winner's as well as the participant's and the volunteer's medals according to IOC standards. Moscow 80 medals were struck at the Soviet mint; I personally do not know for sure if it was in Moscow or in Leningrad, although I tend to lean for the first. Marc |
