Dette er en av 8 kjente eksemplarer av denne typen likbærertegn. Liigbærer laug høres umiddelbart ganske makabert ut, men disse laugene var en nyttig innretning som tok seg av begravelser slik som dagens begravelsesbyråer gjør. Laugene begynte også utover på 1700 tallet å fungere som pensjonsforsikringer for laugsbrødrenes enker eller mindreårige barn. Laugenes inntekter kom fra betaling ved opptagelse i lauget, årskontigent, betaling for begravelser, og bøtlegging av laugsbrødre som ikke utførte et pålagt oppdrag eller ikke hadde oppført seg sømmelig. Liig laugene spredde seg fra Danmark til Norge. På 1680 tallet var det flere Liig laug i Danmark og myndighetene approberte rettigheter for de forskjellige laug til å forestå begravelser innen et område og for en eller flere yrkesgrupper. Den fineste form for begravelse på 1700 tallet var å bli båret til begravelsesstedet. Man kunne også bli kjørt med hest og vogn, men det fineste og mest eksklusive var å bli båret av laugsbrødrene. Dersom man skulle gjøre ekstra ære på den avdøde gjorde man veien ekstra lang rundt i byen. Enkelte laug anskaffet egne store tunge bårer. Bragernes Liigbærer laug i Drammen hadde en slik båre som kunne bæres av helt opp til 16 mann. I begynnelsen foresto laugene kun begravelser for egne medlemmer, men ganske snart begynte de også å påta seg begravelser for utenforstående mot betaling. Det var forskjellige takster for barn og voksne, og mot ekstra betaling kunne laugsbrødrene også møte i galla med hvite hansker og nedhengende flor på hatten. Mot slutten av 1800 tallet forsvant laugene og i Oslo og Drammen gikk de inn i handelsforeninger. Det numismatisk spennende med laugene er de Liiglaugs-medaljer som ble utgitt og hva disse ble brukt til. Svaret på dette finner vi i Søfren Pedersen, laugets eldste medlem, sin beskrivelse fra 1812: «Bragenæs Kiøbmænds Liiglaugs selskaps første eet hundrede aar fra aaret 1709 til aaret 1809». I denne kan vi lese: «Samme (medaljene) blev brugt at leveres til laugsbrødrene, når nogen Liig precession skulde skee, og tilbageleveres af enhver medlem eller den som ved lovlig forfald blev sendt isteden naar forretningen skeede».
