An exceptional silver medal commemorating one of the most important figures of the Reformation, John Calvin (1509–1564).

Struck in Geneva in 1641, created by the renowned medalist Sebastian Dadler (1586–1657), who was active in Hamburg, Dresden, and Danzig.

This medal was struck nearly 80 years after Calvin’s death, at a time when his theological thought was firmly established across Europe. Dadler’s work served not only as a commemorative piece but also as propaganda – glorifying Calvin as a spiritual leader and a symbol of the Reformation. The allegory on the reverse highlights the idea that Calvin’s legacy endures through his teaching and moral strength, long after his passing.

Sebastian Dadler’s medals are today among the rarest and most sought-after examples of 17th-century medallic art, admired both for their craftsmanship and rich ideological message.

Mint luster on both sides. Beautifull medal.
