* ^b Some sources appoint 33 silver medals and 20 bronze medals, instead of 31 and 15, respectively. This would result in a total of 80 medals earned during the 1955 Games, instead of 73.[22][23]
* ^c Some sources appoint 22 silver medals and 12 bronze medals, instead of 19 and 11, respectively. This would result in a total of 43 medals earned during the 1959 Games, instead of 39.[22][24]
* ^d Some sources appoint 20 bronze medals, instead of 16. This would result in a total of 43 medals earned during the 1963 Games, instead of 39.[22][25]
* ^e Some sources appoint 13 silver medals and 11 bronze medals, instead of 14 and 12, respectively. This would result in a total of 32 medals earned during the 1967 Games, instead of 34.[22][26]
