Maurits van Oranje ingehuldigd als markgraaf van Kamperveer 1588

This silver coin, created by an anonymous artist in 1588, commemorates the investiture of Maurits van Oranje as Margrave of Kamperveer. The coin is a small, delicate piece, weighing only 4.12 grams and measuring just 2.7 cm in diameter. The obverse features a hand holding a sword, representing Maurits's power and authority, while the reverse displays two coats of arms - one for the Netherlands and one for Kamperveer - symbolizing the union of these entities. This historical coin is a tangible reminder of a significant event in Dutch history, now held in the Rijksmuseum.
