This medal is not dated, and does not appear to commemorate
any particular event, but the general state of the kingdom
after the war in Ireland, when the four countries fought
together under the shadow of the orange-tree for its protection.
Chevalier places it among the medals struck upon William’s
return to Holland in 1691.

This and the next medalet, without date, refer most probably
to the suppression of the rebellion in Ireland and to the
restoration of peace to the three kingdoms. They were executed
at Augsburg by Leherr, and were intended for use as counters.
