This silver medal, created by Dutch artist Johannes Drappentier in 1733, depicts a detailed view of the city of The Hague ("Haga Com" in Latin) on one side, and a seated female figure representing Justice holding scales and a sword on the other. The medal, measuring 3.6 cm in diameter, is a prime example of Dutch medallic art and likely served as a commemorative piece for the city of The Hague. The intricate details and the symbolic imagery provide insights into the city's history and its values, making this medal a valuable historical artifact.
