History


The Silver Memorial Cross (1813-1815) was established by Royal Decree in 1865. It was awarded to Dutch military personnel who participated in the defence and restoration of Dutch independence during the Napoleonic Wars from 1813-1815.

Because the Cross was instituted some fifty years after the service, only approximately 5000 recipients were recognised from the almost 30000 military personnel who served from 1813-1815.

There is an additional version of the Silver Cross that features a point after the date in the reverse inscription, although it is unknown how this may its value.
