| Additional information |
Brazil's central bank issued a full series of bimetallic circulation coins ahead of the Rio Games, each denomination assigned to a different sport — an approach borrowed loosely from earlier Olympic host nations but executed at a scale unusual for circulating coinage. Most reached everyday pockets well before the opening ceremony.
