| Additional information |
Brazil's Central Bank issued a full series of bimetallic circulation commemoratives tied to the Rio 2016 Games — the first Olympic Games held in South America. Rugby's inclusion in that series reflects the sport's return to the Olympic program in 2016 after a 92-year absence; rugby sevens had not appeared since the 1924 Paris Games.
