Twaalfjarig bestand gesloten / vernieuwen van het verbond tussen Engeland, Frankrijk en de Nederlanden 1609

This silver medal, created by Gerard van Bylaer in 1609, depicts the coats of arms of England, France, and the Netherlands, joined together by an infinity symbol. This signifies the renewal of the alliance between these nations, an important historical event. The inscription on the reverse, a Latin inscription, further underscores this message, referencing the renewal of the bond. This piece, a small but powerful symbol of diplomacy and international relations, offers a glimpse into the complex world of 17th-century European politics.
