This silver medal, created by Dutch medalist Theodorus Everardus van Berckel in 1741, commemorates the construction of the road from 's-Hertogenbosch to Eindhoven. One side depicts the city of 's-Hertogenbosch, while the other side shows a female figure, likely representing the city, holding a caduceus, a symbol of peace and prosperity, and offering it to a seated figure. The inscription "Perficere Viger" translates to "To persevere is strong." The medal's small size and intricate details highlight the artistic skill of van Berckel and the importance of this civic project for the city of 's-Hertogenbosch.
