A Look at the Metal of Olympic Medals

on
 
What is the metal composition of Olympic Medals?
               
               Gold Medal is 92.5% Silver, 6.16 % Copper, 1.34% Gold. 
               Silver Medal is 92.5% Silver, 7.5% Copper. 
               Bronze Medal is 97% Copper, 2.5% Zinc, 0.5% Tin

But it is not the cost or the metal composition nor the monetary value of the Olympic medal that matters, but the honor that the athletes brings to his country.
