Sell Your Bronze 1992 Barcelona Olympics Medal
The 1992 Olympics were held in Barcelona, Spain and brought together over 9,300 athletes from 169 countries. The backdrop of the games was different this year as the global political climate had experienced some recent changes. West and East Germany had been reunited following the collapse of the Berlin Wall and Apartheid was ended in South Africa. Communism had also ended in the former Soviet Union and Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania had their own Olympic teams for the first time since 1936. Baseball became an official medal sport for the 1992 Olympics and other events that debuted include badminton and women’s judo.
