This silver medal, created by the Monogrammist HF in 1678, depicts King Christian V of Denmark. The obverse features a profile portrait of the king, while the reverse showcases a lion holding a sword and shield, surrounded by military symbols and the inscription "PIETAT DE JUGO JUSTITIA" (piety and justice). The medal is a testament to the artistic skill of the anonymous medalist and serves as a historical record of King Christian V's reign. The oval shape and intricate details of the medal are characteristic of Baroque medallic art.
