| Additional information |
This denier falls within one of the most compressed co-regency windows in Ottonian-Salian coinage. Henry III was designated co-emperor by his father Conrad II in 1028, but the period 1038–1039 is specific: Conrad died in June 1039 at Utrecht, making issues bearing both names simultaneously dateable to the final months of his reign. The Regensburg mint was among the most active imperial workshops on the Danube, serving as a key commercial node between Bavaria and the eastern marches.
Hahn's Radas classification remains the standard reference for this regional type, with #35b distinguishing subtle die characteristics that separate it from the closely related #35a.
