This is a circular silver medal created by Sebastian Burger in 1818. The medal features profiles of Mechtild von Seedorf and Anna Seiler, both important figures in Swiss history. The obverse of the medal displays the two women's portraits side by side, with their names and birth and death years inscribed around the circumference. This medal serves as a commemorative piece, celebrating these two historical figures. The detailed inscription and the high-relief portrait style are hallmarks of medallic art from the 19th century.
