This small, silver medal, designed by William Wyon in 1815, commemorates the Battle of Waterloo. The obverse features a portrait of Prince Regent George, the future George IV, while the reverse depicts a laurel wreath with the inscription "Hannover - Waterloo - Tapferkeit" ("Hannover - Waterloo - Bravery"). The medal was likely awarded to Corporal Rudolph Witte of the Duke of Cumberland's Hussars regiment. This small but significant object serves as a tangible reminder of a pivotal moment in European history, highlighting the importance of military valor and the legacy of British involvement in the Napoleonic Wars.
