| Aanvullende informatie |
Johannes Jordan served as Bishop of Sion from 1548 to 1550, a tenure so brief that coinage bearing his name was produced in a narrow window before his death. The Bishopric of Sion — the temporal and ecclesiastical authority governing the Valais — had long exercised the right to strike its own coinage, a privilege that made each bishop's issue effectively a personal monetary statement tied to his exact years in office.
The HMZ 2#1038a attribution places this among the rarer episcopal halves of the series.
