This silver medal, created by Dutch artist Willem de Wijs in 1716, commemorates Joan Corver, mayor of Amsterdam, for his 50 years of service on the city council. The medal depicts Corver's portrait on one side and a Latin inscription on the other, likely referencing his accomplishments. This small, delicate medal, typical of the Baroque period, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Corver's public service in Amsterdam.
