1952 Winter Olympics medal count

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the full table of the medal count of the 1952 Winter Olympics, which were held in Oslo, Norway. These rankings sort by the number of gold medals earned by a country. The number of silvers is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze. If, after the above, countries are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically. This follows the system used by the IOC, IAAF and BBC.

(Host country is highlighted, greatest number of medals in each category is in bold.)

[edit] Notes

1. ^ The IOC medal table currently shows medals won by both "Germany GER" and "Federal Republic of Germany (1950-1990, GER since) FRG, which have been combined here. The official report for these Games refers to Germany, not West Germany or FRG. Future participation of East Germany was discussed during the IOC meeting, with the National Olympic Committee of the German Democratic Republic not to be recognized until 1968.
