This anonymous silver coin, "Omwenteling te Amsterdam," depicts a figure representing the Dutch Republic, standing upon a broken chain, symbolic of the overthrow of the Dutch monarchy in 1795. The small size of the coin, 2.4 centimeters in diameter and 3.26 grams in weight, suggests its use as a token or commemorative piece rather than currency. This coin is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
