| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed cityscape of Munich dominates the central field, featuring the iconic twin onion-domed towers of the Frauenkirche prominently at centre and the spire of the New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus) to the right. A six-pointed snowflake or cross device appears to the left of the architectural composition, and the denomination XXX DUC is inscribed to the upper right. The entire design is encircled by a wreath of laurel branches, with the fineness mark 980 appearing at the base. The three-line legend MÜNCHEN / OLYMPIASTADT / 1972 is boldly inscribed in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1972 Munich Olympics were overshadowed permanently by the September massacre of eleven Israeli athletes and coaches by the Black September organization — an event that halted competition for the first and only time in modern Olympic history. West Germany had invested heavily in projecting a peaceful, democratic image through these Games, and the political catastrophe made much of the associated commemorative program feel suddenly incongruous.
This large-format gold piece belongs to a private "Aureus Magnus" series rather than the official federal commemorative coinage, which topped out at 10 Mark pieces in silver. At 102 grams of high-fineness gold, it was aimed squarely at the bullion souvenir market.
