Afwijzing van de vredesvoorstellen van Rudolf II, Duits keizer 1592

This 16th-century copper coin, known as a "daalder," is a historical artifact that commemorates the rejection of peace proposals by Emperor Rudolf II in 1592. The obverse depicts a crowned figure, likely representing the emperor, rejecting peace offerings, while the reverse features the coat of arms of the Netherlands. This coin, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a tangible reminder of a pivotal moment in Dutch history.
