This 17th-century copper coin, created by Herman van den Bergh between 1620 and 1632, depicts a lion holding a sword and shield within a wreath on one side, and an inscription "S(ancta) * S(ancti) * T(heodori) * WEYVERTS * GV(arda) * 1631" on the other. This small coin, measuring just 2 centimeters in diameter, provides a glimpse into the history of currency and artistic representation in 17th-century Europe.
