The core of the medal from the German Sport University Cologne features a replica of an ancient silver coin found during excavations at Olympia. The coin is an Attic tetradrachm of the so-called ‘New Style’. It bears an image of the goddess Athena wearing the Attic helmet on the obverse, and on the reverse a depiction of an owl (the bird sacred to the goddess) standing on a reclining amphora.
