This silver medal, created in 1675 by Dutch artist Laes Rinties Benningh, commemorates the appointment of Hendrik Casimir II as stadtholder of Friesland, Groningen, and Drenthe. The obverse depicts a profile portrait of Casimir, while the reverse features a standing figure representing the provinces, holding a staff and a coat of arms. This small, detailed piece is a testament to Benningh's skill in medal making, capturing the historical event with precision and artistic finesse.
