yes Depends a little on what you mean by "real" silver. It's a lot of silver in them, but there is some percentage of other metals to make the silver more malleable and more suited for making medals of.

Olympic gold metals are no longer made of solid gold. They do still contain gold, but are made of mostly silver.
Gold, Silver and Bronze are medals given to the winners of the first, second and third places, respectively, in the Olympic tournaments. They are named after their respective metals.
Iron - the rest are metals used in olympic medals.
Yes, All metals are of the same value. They count the total metals, Not the gold, silver and bronze separately.(which i find dumb)So the country with the most metals wins.
Gold Olympic medals are real gold, but they are not all gold. They are usually just coated with gold. The rest of the medal is usually silver. There are standards as to how much gold is actually on the gold medals.
Different metals are Platinum. Gold. Silver, or silver-gilt, which is in fact used for Olympic “gold medals” Bronze. Pewter. Copper. Tin. Iron.
the olympic is all silver nothing else
The Olympic medals are designed especially for each individual Olympic Games by the host city's organizing committee. Each medal must be at least three millimeters thick and 60 millimeters in diameter. Also, the gold and silver Olympic medals must be made out of 92.5 percent silver, with the gold medal covered in six grams of gold. (sjt)
Olympic gold medals are not pure gold. Instead, they are made up of 92 percent silver, then plated with six grams of gold. Olympic silver medals are also not made out of pure silver. This is because pure silver is too soft for production. Instead, sterling silver, which is a mixture of 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper, is used. Pure bronze isn't used in the olympic bronze medals as its color is too similar to gold and could lead to confusion over which medal to present to the athlete. Copper is used in its place.
