This silver medal, created by Johan George Holtzhey in 1781, commemorates the Dutch victory over the English in the Battle of Cadiz. The obverse depicts the Dutch frigates Castor and Den Briel engaged in battle with the English frigates Flora and Crescent, while the reverse features the coat of arms of the Dutch Republic, surrounded by a Latin inscription. The medal is a testament to the naval power of the Dutch Republic and the skill of its admirals. It is a prime example of 18th-century Dutch medallic art and serves as a visual reminder of a crucial naval battle.
