To mark the event returning to the country for a fourth time in 2026 when Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo hosts the Winter Olympics, the Ministry of Economy and Finance and the Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato decided to release the coins celebrating the "History of the Olympics in Italy."
The Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato has produced three gold coins with a face value of €20 dedicated respectively to the Winter Olympics at Cortina d'Ampezzo in 1956 and Turin 2006, as well as the Summer Games staged in Rome in 1960.
