This silver medal by Georg Hautsch, created in 1688, commemorates the breaking of the Treaty of Regensburg. The obverse of the medal depicts the French invasion of the Rhineland, while the reverse shows three female figures representing the Holy Roman Empire. The inscription on the reverse, "Die h. Römisch Treuv-Eintract," refers to the Holy Roman Empire's commitment to its treaties. The medal is a significant historical artifact that reflects the turbulent political landscape of 17th century Europe.
