The saint is depicted in full episcopal regalia including mitre and vestments, his hands held in a devotional gesture. A small shield bearing the arms of Bremen is placed below the throne. The encircling Latin legend in the border identifies the subject as the first bishop of Bremen.

Aanvullende informatie

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.
