This bronze medal, created by Edouard Louis Geerts in 1874, commemorates the 25th anniversary of King Willem III's reign in the Netherlands. The obverse depicts a winged figure of Victory crowning the king, while the reverse features Willem III, flanked by Justice and Abundance, symbolizing his just and prosperous rule. The medal's detailed, realistic style is characteristic of the artist's work and reflects the Neoclassical tendencies of the era. The medal's diminutive size (6.5 cm diameter) and substantial weight (1427 grams) suggest it was intended as a commemorative object for royalty or high-ranking officials.
