Silver miniature of the VOC ship 'de Halve Maen', made by the Zaanlandse silversmiths, active from 1920.

The Halve Maen was a Dutch ship of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) that, under the command of English captain Henry Hudson, entered the bay of the Hudson near the yet-to-be-founded city of New York in September 1609. The Halve Maen was 21 meters long and was in use by the VOC from 1609.

A half-moon is depicted on the stern of the miniature. Also, the VOC logo with the 'A' for Amsterdam above it.

The miniature has been marked 9 times with the 'sword' mark for at least second grade silver, as well as the master's mark z/z.

This miniature was awarded on July 18, 1926, as the second prize at the ZV Braassemermeer sailing club. 

The ship stands on a silver stand.

The miniature is very detailed.
