This 1759 guild medal depicts a sailboat on the water with a figure standing at the helm and a fence along the shoreline. The back of the medal is inscribed with the date, "Dirk Coerse", and the initials "LWB", possibly indicating the guild's name, the artist, or the name of the commissioner. While the creator of the small 3.3 cm piece remains anonymous, it demonstrates the detailed engravings that were used for these unique guild objects.
