John I of Egloffstein held the Würzburg see from 1400 until his death in 1411, a tenure marked by persistent conflict with the local nobility and ongoing financial strain from the diocese's accumulated debts. Small silver pfennigs of this type circulated in the tight regional economy of Franconia alongside competing issues from neighboring ecclesiastical and secular lords — the bishop's monetary authority was real but perpetually contested at the margins.
