This small, bronze, commemorative medal, also known as a jeton, was created to celebrate the coming of age of Charles, Lord of the Netherlands in 1512. The obverse depicts Charles seated on a throne, while the reverse shows the coat of arms of the House of Habsburg. This jeton was likely produced by the Council of Finance and is a fine example of commemorative medals from the early 16th century, an important historical period in the Netherlands.
