Commemorative medal featuring the inscription in both German and French: "TELL SINNBILD UNSERER FREIHEIT" and "TELL SYMBOLE DE NOTRE LIBERTÉ," which translates to "Tell, symbol of our freedom" in English.
The medal pays tribute to William Tell, the legendary Swiss hero known for resisting tyranny and championing independence. His story—particularly the famous scene in which he shoots an apple off his son's head—has become an enduring symbol of liberty, especially in Switzerland.
