Aanvullende informatie

Anthony Nesty's 1988 Seoul Olympic victory in the 100m butterfly — the first Olympic gold medal won by any athlete representing Suriname, and by a swimmer from a nation with no Olympic-sized pool at the time — prompted an outpouring of commemorative issues. This coin marks the 200m butterfly specifically, though Nesty competed only in the 100m at Seoul, which has caused catalogers to debate whether the denomination references the event or a subsequent competition. The copper-nickel version sits in a series that also appeared in silver and gold.
