| Beschrijving voorzijde | Half-length frontal effigy of an ecclesiastical figure, likely the abbot, depicted in vestments and holding a crosier in the left hand and a book (bible) in the right hand. The figure is rendered in the crude, flat relief characteristic of medieval German hammered bracteate-style pfennigs. No legible legend is present in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corvey's abbatial coinage from this period occupied an awkward political position — the abbey held imperial immediacy in theory, but its mint rights were perpetually contested by the bishops of Paderborn and the counts of the region. Henry III of Homburg served as abbot during a stretch when such tensions were at their most litigious, and small silver pfennigs like this one were as much a political assertion as a practical currency.
Weinberg's Corvey corpus remains the primary reference for this series, with type 17 among the more sparsely documented issues.
