| Additional information |
Conrad Probus served as Bishop of Toul during a period when the bishopric's coinage rights were under sustained pressure from the Duchy of Lorraine. The diocese had held minting privileges since the Carolingian period, but by the late thirteenth century those rights were increasingly contested, and the bishops were forced into a series of agreements limiting where and how their coins could circulate.
The "Probus" designation is a Latinized epithet, not a family name — an affectation common to ecclesiastical records of the period that has caused persistent confusion in attribution.
