Geboorte van Willem Frederik, erfprins van Oranje-Nassau 1772

Theodoros Victor van Berckel created this silver medal in 1772 to commemorate the birth of Willem Frederik, the heir apparent to the House of Orange-Nassau. One side depicts a profile portrait of the prince, while the reverse features a winged figure holding a baby, representing the birth of the heir, and a standing woman holding a spear and a shield. The medal was likely commissioned by the Dutch royal family to celebrate this important event.
