| Additional information |
Burkhard II of Ellerbach held the Augsburg see for over five decades, an unusually long episcopate during which the bishopric navigated persistent friction with the city's increasingly assertive merchant guilds. Small silver pfennigs of this type circulated locally in Swabia alongside the region's dense patchwork of competing ecclesiastical and civic issues — a monetary environment so fragmented that individual markets sometimes refused coins struck just a few miles away.
