Jewellery expert F Hinds created a puzzle and said it took even their own champions 52 seconds to figure it out.
If you want to spot the medals within 20 seconds, you might have to pay closer attention than most.
Anyone can spot the cyclist, runner or other Olympic athletes.
Only a true puzzler can find the hidden gems in the photo.
GO FOR THE GOLD
The optical illusion is truly festive, with French flags and torches everywhere.
However, there is still one gold, one silver and one bronze medal to be won.
Jeremy Hinds, jewellery expert at F Hinds, gave his thoughts on the missing medals and explained why they are a priceless find.
“Given the significance of the medals, which represent an unimaginable number of sporting talents, it is difficult to give them a real value,” he said.
“A common misconception is that the medals are made of solid gold, silver or bronze. In fact, the medals are gilded, meaning they have an iron base with a gold and silver plating.
“The plating on the bronze medals consists of a mixture of copper, tin and zinc alloy.
“Something important to note is that this year’s iron composite is actually made from scrap metal from none other than the Eiffel Tower. That means they’re made from the ultimate symbol of Paris.”
He estimated the monetary value at approximately $12,770 for the gold medal, $6,385 for the silver and $2,554 for the bronze.
If you’re still having trouble finding the medals, focus on the athlete getting ready for the start, the runner crossing the finish line, and the gymnast showing off her flexibility.
The medals can be found with the athletes.
