Tweehonderdste verjaardag van de stichting van de hogeschool te Leiden 1775

This silver medal, created by an anonymous artist in 1775, commemorates the 200th anniversary of the founding of Leiden University. The front of the medal features a scene of a man and woman, likely representing the founders, standing before a banner with the inscription "CONSTANTER ET SECURIVS." The reverse depicts a building that is likely the university, with an inscription that reads "VS. ACADEMIAE. LUGDUNENSIS." The medal is a small, but significant, artifact that reflects the historical importance of Leiden University.
