| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central design features a stylized Olympic flame torch from which the five Olympic rings emerge at the top, flanked on either side by athletic figures in motion — a runner to the left and a gymnast to the right — rendered in a dynamic, modern style. A five-pointed star appears on the body of the torch. Below the torch, a rectangular cartouche displays the year '1980' in large numerals. The curved legend 'REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'OLYMPIADE - MOSCOU' is inscribed along the lower portion, all within a beaded border. |

Haiti issued this piece as part of a wave of Olympic-themed gold coins that flooded the numismatic market throughout the late 1970s, when Caribbean and African nations discovered that licensing deals with the IOC offered a reliable stream of hard currency from Western collectors. The Moscow Games themselves became politically toxic after the U.S.-led boycott of 1980, meaning coins struck in anticipation of the event were marketed during a period of considerable diplomatic acrimony — Haiti under Duvalier fils being one of the few Western-hemisphere governments that maintained cooperative distance from both superpowers simultaneously.
KM#141 was struck two to three years before the Games it commemorates.
