Draft:Aluminium Medal

The Aluminium Medal is an unofficial award created for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games, awarded to Australian Olympic athletes who defeated a Canadian competitor at the Games, regardless of their final standings in their event. Created as part of a publicity stunt for Australian whisky brand Coastal Stone, the Aluminium Medal was designed to symbolize spirited competition and Australian victory, bringing a national beverage rivalry between Coastal Stone and Canadian Club to world's largest sporting competition.

Production and Design

 * Shape: Usually circular, featuring an attachment for a chain or ribbon
