Will any country include an image of their Olympic medalist on their currency by 8/8/09?
Current forecast: 25% chance 
Combining all predictions, the current forecast is that this is 25% likely to happen (unchanged in last 1 day)
There are a few countries that have never won an Olympic medal and quite a few that have only won one. It would be a tremendous bit of prestige to one of these nations if one of their own earned a medal. This market is asking whether any country will place the image of an athlete that represented their country at the 2008 Summer Games, and medaled, onto their currency, either coin or paper within one year of the Games, 8/8/09.
