1 Schilling - Rudolph II of Scherenberg

Rudolph II von Scherenberg became Bishop of Würzburg in 1466 at roughly seventy years of age, inheriting a see burdened with catastrophic debt accumulated by his predecessors. His three-decade episcopate was largely consumed by systematic debt reduction — a financial reconstruction so disciplined it became noted among German ecclesiastical administrations of the period. Coinage issued under his authority reflects this long tenure rather than any single political event.

The Ehwald reference places this among the documented schilling issues attributable to his mint at Würzburg, active across the full span of his reign until his death in 1495 at approximately ninety-nine years of age.
