| Reversbeschreibung | A frontal enthroned figure of Saint Peter, patron saint of Bremen, is depicted in a hieratic, Romanesque-influenced style, wearing episcopal vestments and a crown or nimbus. The saint holds a large key — the symbol of his apostolic authority and the emblem of the city — prominently in one hand. The figure is seated between architectural elements suggestive of a throne or church setting, with the city's small shield visible in the lower field. A circular Latin legend, partially abbreviated, surrounds the entire composition within a beaded border. |

Bremen struck this half thaler in 1499 under the authority of the city's independent mint, which operated with considerable autonomy as the Hanseatic port consolidated its commercial dominance over North Sea trade routes. The late fifteenth century was a particularly tense period for Bremen's monetary affairs — the city was actively negotiating its status within the Holy Roman Empire while simultaneously defending its mint rights against encroachment from the Archbishop of Bremen, a jurisdictional conflict that had simmered for decades.
At this date, the thaler denomination was only just emerging as a standardized unit across German-speaking lands, making this half-thaler an early participant in that transition.
