This silver medal, created by Johann Heinrich Schepp in 1783, commemorates the death of Jean Royer, a preacher in Leeuwarden and The Hague. The obverse of the medal depicts a skull and crossbones atop a tombstone with an inscription in Dutch, while the reverse features a Latin inscription describing Royer's life and accomplishments. This small, yet detailed work showcases Schepp's skill in crafting commemorative medallions that honor notable individuals, making it a valuable artifact for understanding 18th-century Dutch culture.
