This insurance medal shows a shield surrounded by sitting angels that represent savings and welfare. Above the angels is a column supporting a globe, that says “the world” topped by a star. On the back the words translate to: anonymous company of insurance on human life.

History: Prior to the 18th century insurance is primarily maritime and was in the hands of a few major shipowners. It is a contract for an individual to repair losses related to a shipwreck during trade routes.

Non-maritime insurance is imposed by Louis XV in 1753 mostly offered as a fire guarantee with a general insurance company. This medal was created in 1875 and signed by the medalist Joseph Dantzell (1805–1877) who worked for the Paris mint.
