This commemorative medal, created by Jacques (II) Roëttiers in 1740, depicts the dedication of the new church in Marimont to the Virgin Mary. The obverse features a profile portrait of Maria Elisabeth, the governor of the Southern Netherlands, while the reverse depicts the church itself, with the inscription "DIVINÆ MATRI CŒLO DEVOTA RECEPTA" (To the divine mother, the devout vows were received). The medal's intricate details and historical significance make it a valuable artifact, offering a glimpse into the religious and political landscape of 18th-century Europe.
