Comment

Some sources claim that these Olympic coins were minted at Nova Mint in Barcelona, Spain. Unfortunately, such mint doesn't exist and has never existed. Further research didn't provide any further information on this matter. Based on mint information of the gold 1000 gulden coin, it is claimed that these silver coins were minted at the Cape Mint in South Africa as well.
