Filips III van Croy, hertog van Aarschot en Johanna van Halewijn en Commines 1562

This 16th-century bronze medal, created by an anonymous artist, depicts Filips III van Croy, Duke of Aarschot, and Johanna van Halewijn and Commines. The obverse side features a shield with the coat of arms of the Duke, surmounted by a crown and surrounded by a Latin inscription. The reverse side shows the coats of arms of the duke and his wife, arranged in a square. This small but intricately detailed medal (2.7 cm in diameter) is a testament to the artistry of its time and serves as a historical record of an important figure in European nobility.
