| Additional information |
Otto II ruled Bavaria during a period of intense Wittelsbach consolidation, and his bracteate-style pfennigs reflect the fragmented regional minting that characterized the German duchies before imperial monetary reforms took hold. The Em Reg#224 attribution places this firmly within Emmerig's catalog of Regensburg-area coinage, suggesting mint activity tied to that episcopal and ducal center rather than a single unified Bavarian authority.
Dating these issues precisely within the 1231–1253 window remains difficult; die analysis is the primary tool, and many examples circulated well past Otto's death in 1253.
