This small, 4.5 cm diameter silver medal depicts the execution of King Louis XVI of France on January 21, 1793. The obverse side shows a profile portrait of Louis XVI, while the reverse depicts the execution of the king by guillotine, with the executioner holding a bucket to catch the king’s head, along with other onlookers. This medal, created by the anonymous artist, is a powerful and poignant reminder of the French Revolution and its tumultuous aftermath. It is a visual document of a pivotal moment in French history and a testament to the impact of revolutionary ideals on the monarchy and its people.
