Legislative proposal coming from United States Mint on 2028 Olympic coins
Coinage legislation is being pursued in anticipation of the 2028 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles and to also recognize the Paralympics athletes, U.S. Mint Director David J. Ryder told Coin World Aug. 13.
Ryder said in an interview at the American Numismatic Association World’s Fair of Money in Rosemont, Illinois, that U.S. Mint officials will be consulting with representatives of the U.S. Olympic Committee to help draft the necessary legislation.
Ryder said such legislation would include a reasonable number of coin designs with suitable mintages without becoming a repeat of the 1995–1996 Atlanta Centennial Olympics Commemorative Coin Program (which initially authorized a combined 18 million various coins across three denominations, before the mintage ceilings were scaled back).

Olympic coins have proved to be good sales in the past....though values peaked quickly and dropped even faster afterwards...Cheers, RickO
