Aanvullende informatie

Brazil's 2016 Olympic program generated one of the largest commemorative coin series in the institution's history, with the Banco Central contracting the Casa da Moeda do Brasil to produce dozens of individual sport-themed issues across multiple metals and denominations. The rowing piece sits within a subset pairing each sport with a native Brazilian orchid species — a deliberate cultural framing that tied the international event to endemic biodiversity at a moment when deforestation in the Atlantic Forest was drawing pointed international scrutiny.

The .925 silver standard used across the series matches British sterling rather than the more common .999 fine used by many contemporary national mints for collector issues.
