Metalen Kruis 1830-1831 met blauw-oranje lint after 1832

This is a bronze medal commemorating the 1830-1831 Belgian Revolution, which was a significant moment in Belgian history. Created by an anonymous artist after 1832, the medal features a cross with the words "TROUW AAN HET VADERLAND" (Loyalty to the Fatherland), "1830 1831" and "KONING" (King) inscribed around a laurel wreath. The medal's design likely commemorates the revolution's victory in achieving independence for Belgium and could be considered a historical artifact that symbolizes the country's hard-won freedom. The small size of the medal and the inscription suggest it was intended for personal use and may have been awarded to individuals who contributed to the revolution.
