| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large cross pattée divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing heraldic charges from the quartered arms associated with the Archbishopric of Bremen and its territorial claims. The quadrants display alternating devices including keys and a rampant lion, rendered in the bold relief typical of late medieval hammered gold coinage. A beaded inner circle separates the central shield from the surrounding legend. The uncial Latin inscription runs continuously around the periphery within a pearl border, proclaiming the coin as new money of Bremen. |

John III of Saxony held the archbishopric of Bremen from 1497 until his death in 1511, an appointment that reflected the broader Wettin dynastic strategy of accumulating ecclesiastical offices across northern Germany. Bremen's right to strike gold coinage was a jealously guarded privilege, and goldgulden from this see are genuinely scarce — episcopal mints in the Lower Saxon circle struck gold infrequently, and surviving examples suggest production runs were small even by contemporary standards.
Fr#428 places this issue within the Rhine goldgulden tradition, the pan-German gold standard of the late fifteenth century enforced by the Electoral Rhenish mint treaty of 1386.
