Jenner, 66, set a world decathlon record at the 1976 Montreal Summer Games when she was still known as Bruce.
With the 40th anniversary of her Olympic win coming up, the source said Jenner is "excited" to show off her gold medal for the first time post-transition. Up until now, she's reportedly kept her "most prized possession" at the bottom of her makeup drawer.
Jenner previously revealed she had kept her medal under wraps as to not send the wrong message to her children -- Kylie, 18, Kendall, 20, Brody, 32, Brandon, 34, Casey, 35, and Burt, 37. She also helped raise Kim, 35, Khloe, 31, Kourtney, 37, and Rob, 29.
"I never wanted my kids to feel like they had to have a gold medal in order to be considered a success," Jenner wrote in an August 2015 blog post. "I didn't want them to constantly compare their own achievements to my time in the Olympics, so I haven't displayed my medal."
Jenner revealed her female identity and new name in the July 2015 issue of Vanity Fair. Since then, she has served as an advocate for the LGBTQ community, reaching out to transgender individuals who are tormented or misunderstood.
Although Jenner's transition hasn't been easy and her beliefs have been met with a fair share of criticism -- especially when it comes to her political views -- the reality TV star admitted the process has been an even "greater time" in her life than the experience of winning a gold medal.
