Hoofdcommissie tot de zaken der Israeliten, prijspenning ingesteld overeenkomstig Koninklijk Besluit 1836

This 1836 silver medal, created by Johannes Petrus Schouberg, commemorates the establishment of the "Hoofd-Commissie tot de Zaken der Israeliten" (Main Committee for the Affairs of Israelites). The obverse of the medal features an olive branch, a dove, a lion, and stone tablets. The reverse is inscribed with the committee's title and "TOEG E W E Z E N DOOR DE HOOFD-COMMISSIE TOT DE ZAKEN DER ISRAELITEN" (Granted by the Main Committee for the Affairs of Israelites). This small, detailed medal is a powerful symbol of the efforts made to improve the lives of Jewish people in the Netherlands during this time.
