In addition, the first 8 winners of Lear Capital's Medal to Metal Games were announced and each takes home an American Eagle Gold or Silver coin. A total of eight winning registrants were selected at random on Lear's web site this morning (www.learcapital.com) and their names were posted on their Medal to Metal podium. Three of the lucky winners will receive a 1/10 oz. GOLD American Eagle Coin and five will receive or a 1 oz. SILVER American Eagle Coin, both legal tender and official bullion coins of the United States.

There is still time to register for the Medal to Metal Games. Winning names will be selected at random every 48 hours for the duration of Olympic competition and posted alongside Team USA's winning athletes, their medal designation, and their event. Lear Capital is also hosting a real-time 2012 Olympic Medal Tracker that tallies total medals won by country. The USA is currently tied with China for the most medals although China leads America in total Gold medals.

Remaining Olympic competition includes traditional American strongholds of Women's Gymnastics, Men's Basketball, Women's Soccer and Track & Field … and Lear's web site will have all the results!
