Description
An impressive and historically significant antique Dutch East Indies silver award medal, issued for the 1914 Java Football Championship, held in connection with the Colonial Exhibition in Semarang, Java.
Designed by the celebrated Dutch medallist Johannes Cornelis Wienecke, this large and beautifully detailed medal combines exceptional Art Nouveau-inspired craftsmanship with an important chapter in the early history of Indonesian football.
Obverse:
The obverse features a finely detailed seated Javanese woman in traditional ceremonial dress, positioned beneath an elaborate architectural archway decorated with floral motifs, ornamental columns, and intricate traditional designs.
The surrounding inscription reads “KOLONIALE TENTOONSTELLING SEMARANG” (Colonial Exhibition Semarang), with the date 1914 prominently displayed below.
Reverse:
The reverse features a central presentation field surrounded by a beautifully engraved wreath of oak leaves and decorative foliage.
The field bears the inscription:
“JAVA KAMPIOENSCHAP VOETBAL”
Translated as Java Football Championship.
This inscription connects the medal directly to the early organised football competitions held in Java during the Dutch colonial period.
Historical Significance
The 1914 Semarang Colonial Exhibition was an important event in the Netherlands East Indies.
During the exhibition, a football tournament was organised between representative teams from major Javanese cities, including Batavia, Semarang, Soerabaja, and Bandoeng.
The competition became an important milestone in the development of organised football in the region.
This medal is therefore of particular interest to collectors of early football memorabilia, Dutch colonial history, Indonesian sporting history, and historical European medals.
Condition
The medal is in attractive antique condition, retaining well-defined relief and intricate decorative details.
Visible surface scratches, small marks, and areas of natural toning are present, particularly on the engraved reverse field, consistent with age and historical handling.
Actual weight: 70.50 grams.
A highly collectible historical medal combining Dutch medallic artistry, colonial-era history, and early Indonesian football heritage.
