| Aanvullende informatie |
Augsburg's pfennig coinage of this period reflects the city's position as one of the wealthiest commercial centers in the Holy Roman Empire — home to the Fugger and Welser banking dynasties whose capital flowed across three continents. The city held mint rights as a free imperial city, answering directly to the Emperor rather than any territorial prince, which gave its coinage unusual political independence for such a small denomination.
The Forster/Schmidhäuser reference places this type firmly within Augsburg's mid-sixteenth century civic issues. Silver pfennigs of this size and period circulated hard in local trade; survivors in collectible condition are genuinely scarce.
