| Additional information |
Dorpat's sede vacante issues of 1515 fill the gap between the death of Bishop Johannes III Bey in 1515 and the installation of his successor, Johann Blankenfeld — a period when the chapter retained minting authority and struck in the bishop's absence. The Livonian ecclesiastical mints rarely produced pfennigs of this type under normal circumstances, making the vacancy coinage a distinct administrative episode rather than a routine emission.
