US skateboarder Nyjah Huston says his Olympic medal is in poor condition days after earning it

(CNN) – American skateboarder Nyjah Huston’s Olympic medal is not holding up so well.

The athlete posted a video to Instagram, showing off the bronze medal that he won on July 29 at the Paris Olympics.

He said the medal looked great when it was brand new. But after letting it sit on his sweaty skin and having his friends wear it around for a few days, the medal quickly began to deteriorate.

Huston said his medal is now looking rough, discolored and even chipped.

After Huston’s post went viral, the manufacturer said it planned to replace the medal and investigate what caused the damage.
