This is a small, circular, bronze medal, or guild token, dating to 1811. The obverse depicts a windmill and surrounding landscape in a simple engraved style, while the reverse side is inscribed with "Pieter Pouwels Harmanus 14 Februarij 1811", which suggests the piece commemorates a guild member, potentially an individual named Pieter Pouwels Harmanus who joined the Korenmolenaarsgilde (Millers' Guild) of Amsterdam on 14 February, 1811.
