Christopher of Brunswick served as Archbishop of Bremen from 1511 to 1558, though his tenure began under a cloud — he was never confirmed by Rome, making him administrator rather than canonically recognized archbishop for much of his rule. The Thaler-weight silver coinage struck in his name during the opening years of his administration predates the widespread adoption of the "Thaler" name itself, placing these pieces among the earliest large-format silver strikes from the Lower Saxon ecclesiastical mints.
Davenport's attribution under the Guldengroschen Taler series reflects the transitional nature of the denomination at this precise moment.
