This bronze medal, created by Moses de Vries in 1863, commemorates the 50th anniversary of Dutch independence. The obverse features a group of figures representing the nation's strength and prosperity, while the reverse depicts a winged figure, symbolizing freedom, placing a wreath on a pillar adorned with the Dutch coat of arms. The inscription reads "Vijftig Jaar Vrijheid, 1813-1863", translating to "Fifty Years of Freedom", a powerful testament to the Dutch people's resilience and independence.
