This silver commemorative medal, created in 1772 by an anonymous artist, honors Johannes Boskoop, a Dutch preacher. The obverse features a bust portrait of Boskoop in profile, while the reverse lists his birthdate, dates of his ministries in various cities, and his death date. These medals were likely produced for personal use and were often distributed to friends and family. The medal’s small size and detailed inscription make it a valuable historical artifact for studying Dutch religious figures and commemorative practices of the 18th century.
