Sluiting van het drievoudige verbond tussen Engeland, Frankrijk en de Republiek 1596

This small silver medal, created by an anonymous artist in 1596, commemorates the Triple Alliance, a military pact formed between England, France, and the Dutch Republic. The obverse side displays the coats of arms of the three nations, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. The reverse side shows three hands clasped together, symbolizing the unity of the alliance. The medal is a testament to the political and military landscape of the 16th century, and highlights the shifting alliances and rivalries between European powers.
