This small, 16th-century, circular medal, "Verdrag van Toledo tussen Karel V, Duits keizer en Frans I, koning van Frankrijk, rekenpenning ten behoeve van Mr. Vincent Dammasz., klerk-ordinaris van de rekenkamer van Holland", commemorates the Treaty of Toledo between Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, and Francis I, King of France. Created by an anonymous artist, the medal depicts the coats of arms of both monarchs, representing the peace treaty between them. The inscription on the medal references the treaty and its purpose, a payment to Vincent Dammasz., an official in the Dutch accounting chamber. This piece is an example of the use of medals in the 16th century to commemorate significant events, particularly those related to treaties and diplomacy.
