Crafted with exquisite detail, this silver medal is adorned with a silk ribbon and gilt buckle, adding an elegant touch to its already remarkable design. The medal holds great historical significance as it commemorates the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, a decisive conflict that marked the end of Napoleon Bonaparte's reign. The obverse side of the medal can be seen in another accompanying image. Displayed at the National Army Museum in London, this artifact serves as a testament to Col. Keane's bravery and valor on the battlefield. It symbolizes not only his personal achievements but also those of all soldiers who fought alongside him during this momentous event. The presence of angelic figures on both sides of the medal adds an ethereal element to its overall aesthetic.
