Paris Olympic Medalists Got More Prizes After the Podium — See the Special Display They Get to Memorialize Wins

Medalists from the 2024 Games in Paris received commemorative display cases and certificates of authenticity for their Olympic hardware

Medalists from the Paris Olympics are still riding high from the 2024 Games — and taking home commemorative gifts to display their hardware!

British rower Imogen Grant — who won gold with Emily Craig in the women's lightweight double sculls on Aug. 2 — offered an in-depth look at the special display box and certificate that athletes are given to store their Olympic medals in a video shared on TikTok.

"I've got something really cool to show you guys," Grant, 28, said in the video, as she revealed her official certificate from the Paris Games.

"That's my certificate to say that I won gold," Grant told viewers, showing off signatures from Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Tony Estanguet, president of the 2024 Paris Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

"And even better...this is the box," Grant said in the video, describing the display as "so big," as she propped up the navy blue display box for her medal.

After unlatching the two clasps at the front of the display case, Grant — with a wide grin — opened the box and revealed her gold medal inside.

The athlete also shared her certificate of authenticity for the medal, which is made with 18 grams of iron taken from the 1889 Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Medalists also received a pin badge to commemorate their athletic achievements in the Paris Games, Grant shared.

Grant's gold-medal win with Craig in Paris was years in the making. The duo came in fourth in the Tokyo Games, where they fell short of the bronze by just one-hundredth of a second in their Olympic debuts.

Speaking to the BBC after winning gold in Paris, Grant said the race was "probably one of the best races we've done together" and the "most complete."

Grant told the outlet that her experience in Tokyo discouraged her, leading her to think that medaling in the Olympics "might never happen."

"Then it has happened in the best way possible, so it just feels amazing," Grant told the BBC.
