Slag bij Oudenaarde 1708

This silver medal, created by Martin Brunner in 1708, commemorates the Battle of Oudenaarde, a decisive victory for the allied forces of the Grand Alliance against the French during the War of the Spanish Succession. The obverse depicts two figures, likely representing the allied commanders Eugene of Savoy and John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough, while the reverse features a seated figure, perhaps representing Louis XIV, king of France, with a rooster, symbolizing his defeated armies. The medal's intricate design and historical significance make it a valuable artifact of the era.
