This triangular silver medal, created in 1581 by an anonymous artist, commemorates the Duke of Anjou's successful defense of Cambrai, a city in France. The medal's design features the coat of arms of France, with the inscription "CISCQ.LIBERATORIBVS.DEO.ET.FRANC" on one side, and the inscription "IO.D.D.OES.E.1581.CAMERICI" on the other. The medal, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a unique glimpse into the history of the French monarchy and the city of Cambrai during the 16th century.
