This commemorative medal, created by Johan George Holtzhey in 1751, depicts Willem IV, Stadtholder of the Dutch Republic, in profile. The inscription around the medal reads "WILHELMUS IV. D.G. STAT. GENERAL. BELG. C. TOTIUS LEG. PRINC. ORAN." This small, delicate medal, measuring only 4 cm in diameter, is a poignant reminder of Willem IV's death and a testament to the artistry of Holtzhey, a prominent medallist of the 18th century. The medal is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum.
