On the 14 November, 1910, the Swedish Olympic Committee accepted for the badge to be given to the officials and competitors present at the Games, a design by Erik Lindberg, representing the head of Pallas Athene, as the principal figure, resting on a four-sided plinth adorned with the Three Crowns of Sweden. The plinth bore the following inscription in Swedish: “The Olympic Games of Stockholm, 1912”. About 5,000 examples of the badge were struck in oxidized silver-plated metal, in addition to which, some 50 were struck, made of silver-gilt, the last-mentioned being for the members of the Swedish and the International Olympic Committees
