Stillen van het aansprekersoproer te Amsterdam, penning aan de gewapende burgers vereerd 1696

This silver medal, created by Jacob van Dishoecke in 1696, commemorates the quelling of the uprising in Amsterdam. The obverse depicts Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, standing on a seahorse-drawn chariot, his trident in hand. He raises his other hand, a gesture of command, as he calms the turbulent seas, symbolizing the restoration of peace and order. The reverse features a ship sailing on the water, with a banner above it that reads, "The Republic restored, the sedition silenced." This medal serves as a powerful testament to the Dutch Republic's victory over civil unrest.
