Rekenkamer van Vlaanderen te Rijssel 1565

This 16th-century bronze medal, dating back to 1565, is a striking example of numismatic art. Created by an unknown artist, the medal features a crowned coat of arms on one side and a stylized scale on the other. This likely represents the Rekenkamer, a court of audit, in Lille, Flanders, symbolizing their responsibility for financial accountability. The small size and intricate details of this medal demonstrate the skill of the anonymous artist and offer insight into the historical context of the Rekenkamer.
