This silver medal, created by English medalist John Croker in 1709, commemorates the Battle of Malplaquet, a major battle in the War of the Spanish Succession. The obverse depicts Queen Anne, wearing a crown and ornate dress, while the reverse depicts a battle scene with the goddess of victory, Victoria, flying above. The Latin inscription translates to "Victory Gained by the English, Dutch, and Austrians at Malplaquet on the 11th of August 1709."
