Query: Familie Penningen
Bernard Olij of Malang Indonesia writes:

In numismatics, the theme of love and marriage also plays a major role. As a memento of important family events such as birth, marriage, baptism and death, bourgeois families had tokens made from the end of the 16th century.

Marriage tokens
In the seventeenth-century Netherlands, the (Calvinist) family occupied a central place. On wedding tokens, the prevailing seventeenth-century norms, values ??and morals regarding marriage and love can often be found in images and texts. Christian symbolism often plays a major role in this.

The 'anniversary wedding tokens' reflect the length of the marital union and were often used to emphasize the couple's social or personal success. It is therefore not surprising that the "wealthy class" in particular had these made in gold and silver. The gold copies were usually for the couple, the silver copies for the wedding guests.

This token was the first in a long line of wedding tokens in this family. In their descendants no fewer than 7 golden weddings were celebrated between 1621 and 1722, which were immortalized with commemorative medals. For the seventh Golden Jubilee, the wedding of Pieter van Loon & Agenta Graswinckel, a copper engraving was made by Jan Goeree.
