Additional information

Henry II of Regensburg held the episcopal see from 1277 to 1296, and his bracteate-influenced deniers reflect the monetary fragmentation typical of the late Salian and Staufen aftermath in the Upper Danube region — a period when ecclesiastical mints routinely issued their own coinage under imperial privilege without central coordination. The Bishopric's minting rights in Regensburg were ancient, traceable to grants predating the Ottonians, but production in this decade was small-scale and locally absorbed.
