Simon I of Lippe served as Bishop of Paderborn from 1247 to 1277, a tenure marked by persistent conflict with the local nobility over territorial rights in Westphalia. The Warburg bracteate pfennigs issued under his authority were struck at a time when the thin, single-sided silver bracteate format dominated German ecclesiastical coinage — a regional minting tradition that would begin fading within a generation as double-sided pfennigs reasserted themselves across the Empire.
The Weing. Corvey #38 reference places this piece within Friedrich Weingarth's corpus of Corvey-region issues, a classification system still used by specialists despite its age.
