This silver medal, created in 1662 by Jan Roettiers, depicts Catherine of Braganza, the Queen of England, in profile. The inscription around the edge identifies her as "CATHARINA D.G. MAG. BRI. FRAN. ET. HIB. REGINA" (Catherine by the Grace of God, Queen of Great Britain, France and Ireland). This commemorative piece, typical of the Baroque period, showcases the artistry of Roettiers and celebrates the queen's role in English history.
