This 17th century, 3.8 cm diameter, bronze medal was created by Johannes Looff in 1628. It is a “schutterspenning”, which is a type of commemorative medal awarded to members of a guild. The front of the medal depicts a coat of arms while the reverse shows a crossbow and other symbols, likely those of the “Confrerie van de Edele Handboog te Middelburg”, a guild for crossbowmen.
