Roei-, steiger- en schuitenvoerdersgilde van Amsterdam, gildepenning van Jan Spierje, ligplaats Haringpakkerij 1765

This small, circular, brass medal, created by an anonymous artist in 1765, is a guild token for the Roei-, steiger- en schuitenvoerdersgilde van Amsterdam (Rowing, Pier and Boatmen's Guild of Amsterdam). The obverse features a small sailboat with a flag at the mast, depicting the trade of the guild. On the reverse, the inscription "Jan Spierje Ho[o]sp" is displayed, along with the date 1765. These details likely identify the guild member for whom the medal was made.
