| Beschrijving keerzijde | Double-headed Imperial eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head surmounted by a separate crown and the whole ensigned by a central imperial crown at the top. A scepter and orb are visible at the breast, and an ornamental shield or breast-plate occupies the center of the eagle's body. The surrounding legend, within a beaded border, carries the imperial titulature of Ferdinand II, Holy Roman Emperor, reading FERDIN·II·D·G·ROM·IMP·S·AVGVS, abbreviating Ferdinandus II, Dei Gratia Romanorum Imperator Semper Augustus. Small rosette stops separate the legend elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bremen struck thalers throughout the Thirty Years' War essentially to assert and maintain its status as a free imperial city — coinage being one of the few unambiguous expressions of autonomous authority available to a city under constant political pressure. By 1635, the war had devastated much of the surrounding region; Swedish forces had held Bremen's hinterland since the early 1630s, and the city itself was navigating an extraordinarily delicate neutrality.
The Jungk 474 attribution places this among a small cluster of die varieties from that year. Survivors in collectible condition are scarce, partly because Bremen's thalers from this decade circulated hard across war-torn northern trade routes.
