Beschrijving voorzijde Full-length frontal figure of a mitred bishop, identified as Abbot Hermann I of Holte, depicted in high relief in the Romanesque style. The figure wears ecclesiastical vestments and a mitre, holding a pastoral staff (crozier) in the left hand and what appears to be a book or cross in the right. The composition is framed by a beaded inner border, with the Latin legend HERM - ANVS distributed in the field to either side of the figure. The striking is characteristically irregular, consistent with hammered medieval production.

Aanvullende informatie

Corvey, originally founded as a Carolingian imperial abbey on the Weser in 823, had by the thirteenth century accumulated substantial territorial rights that included the privilege of independent coinage. Hermann I of Holte held the abbacy across three decades, a tenure long enough to produce several die varieties under his name. The Weing and Kennepohl references each treat this bracteate-era pfennig as a distinct issue, reflecting the localized monetary fragmentation typical of the Westphalian ecclesiastical mints during this period of imperial weakness under the prolonged conflicts between Hohenstaufen and papal factions.
