| Aanvullende informatie |
Bremen's half-groten was a copper circulation piece of negligible face value. Striking one in near-pure gold in 1771 served no commercial purpose — pattern strikes at this denomination were almost certainly produced for presentation to city councillors or visiting dignitaries, a practice common among the German free cities who used such pieces to demonstrate the technical competence of their municipal mint rather than to trial a proposed coinage.
KM#Pn 30 is sparsely documented, and surviving examples are extremely rare. The 1771 date places it during the period when Bremen's mint was operating under increasingly constrained circumstances before its eventual closure.
