| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust of a bishop in pontifical vestments, depicted frontally in a stylized medieval manner. The figure wears a mitre and holds a sword in the right hand and a pennant-topped staff in the left, both rendered in low relief characteristic of late medieval hammered coinage. The effigy occupies the full field with no surrounding legend, consistent with anonymous pfennig coinage of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Shield bearing the arms of the city of Regensburg, depicted centrally within the coin's field. The heraldic device shows a crenellated city gate motif rendered in bold, simplified relief typical of late 14th-century hammered bracteate-influenced coinage. No surrounding legend is present; the shield fills the available flan with decorative elements framing the charge. |

John I of Regensburg held the see from 1384 until his death in 1409, a period during which the Bishopric's coinage rights were under persistent pressure from the city's increasingly assertive burgher class. The small silver pfennig denominations issued under his authority were the workhorse of local exchange in a region where Bavarian ducal coinage and episcopal issues competed uneasily for acceptance.
Emmerig's Reg#249a places this among the documented episcopal pfennigs of the period, a series notorious for thin flans and off-center strikes owing to hand-hammered production on irregular blanks.
