Comment

The 1995 Olympic Stadium $5 Gold Coin was issued as one of two $5 commemorative gold coins released in 1995 for the XXVI Olympiad held in Atlanta, Georgia. These coins were part of an even more expansive program which included a total of sixteen coins released during the years 1995 and 1996. The 85,000-seat venue hosted the track and field events, as well as the closing ceremonies, and then was reconstructed into Turner Field, home of Major League Baseballs Atlanta Braves for two decades.

Interesting fact

The 1995 $5 Gold XXVI Olympiad Stadium Non-Circulating Coin from the United States features a unique design that showcases the Olympic Stadium in Atlanta, where the 1996 Summer Olympics were held. The coin's design includes a depiction of the stadium's iconic arches and a portion of the Olympic torch, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This coin is particularly interesting because it was produced in a limited quantity, with only 30,100 coins minted, making it a sought-after collector's item for both coin enthusiasts and Olympic memorabilia collectors.
