Summer Olympics Paris 2024
The 2024
Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad, and
commonly known as Paris 2024, is an international multi-sport event that is
scheduled to take place from 26 July to 11 August 2024 in Paris, France.
Having
previously played host in 1900 and 1924, Paris will become the second city to
host the Olympics three times, after London (1908, 1948 and 2012). 2024 will
mark the centenary of the Paris Games of 1924 and the sixth Olympic Games
hosted by France (three in summer and three in winter).
The 2024 Summer Olympics,
which will take place in Paris, is an opportunity for the Monnaie de Paris to
celebrate this major international competition with a series dedicated to
sport, its values, athletes, and the heritage of the host country.
2022 is the second year of a quadrilogy in
which sport and its values are celebrated through the Monnaie de Paris coin and
medallion collections. After Marianne (2021), the 2022 coin features a Genie
throwing a discus overlooking the track and field stadium. The Arc de Triomphe,
symbolizing the city of Paris, is also depicted in the background.
