| Aanvullende informatie |
Clemens August of Bavaria held simultaneously five ecclesiastical principalities at his peak — Cologne, Münster, Paderborn, Hildesheim, and the Grand Mastership of the Teutonic Order — making him the most powerful ecclesiastical prince in the Holy Roman Empire. This Pfennig dates to the early years of his Cologne tenure, just two years after his election in 1724, when his administration was still consolidating revenue streams across his sprawling territorial holdings.
The silver content in a coin of this weight is negligible by any practical measure, which speaks to the inflationary pressure on small-denomination ecclesiastical coinage throughout the Rhineland during this period.
