Glad to help, mikehy.

The plates are at the end of the document, you have to scroll almost to the end. Here is what it looks like:

Quite worn for a medal. But still very nice. Deserves a careful cleaning. A photo of a better conserved one

By Nicolaas van Swinderen. A prolific dutch engraver. May have been struck in the Austrian Netherlands before the french opportunistic invasion in 1744.

Is the motto Persistent under the protection of heaven? Remains under the protection of heaven? Any of those very much a Maria Theresa motto. Need one of hers for my collection.
