With the cost of gold rising and rising, we’re all pretty curious about how much an Olympic gold medal is actually worth, and we have the answer!

So, each gold medal is made with 550 grams of silver covered by 6 grams of gold which balances out to around $500 per gold medal, whereas a silver medal is worth around $260 and sadly the bronze only $3.
