Prescribes guidelines for the sale and pricing of such coins. Mandates: (1) that surcharges be paid to the U.S. Olympic Committee; (2) deposit of all amounts received from the sale of coins in the coinage profit fund; and (3) that the Secretary takes steps to ensure that the coin issuance will not result in any net cost to the United States.
