This silver medal, created by Roelof Hensbergen in 1674, commemorates the capture of Grave by Prince William III. The obverse features a bust portrait of the prince, while the reverse depicts a scene of the siege. The medal is a small work, measuring just 6.2 cm in diameter, yet it is a powerful testament to a significant historical event. The detailed engravings, along with the inscription on the obverse, provide valuable insights into the life and reign of Prince William III. This commemorative medal is a prime example of the art of medal-making in the 17th century and serves as a historical artifact for studying the history of the Netherlands.
