Medal by Heinrich Paul Groskurt, made to commemorate the establishment of the Order of the White Eagle. The medal is undated, but according to Martin Heidemann's latest findings, it was "created in 1721 or just before the Order holidays in 1718 and 1720" (For the Fatherland and the Nation, p.161). Previously, the medal was dated 1705/1706 according to the date the order was established, and 1713 based on the form of the insignia suspended from the throne.
