Aanvullende informatie

Lothair II inherited the West Frankish throne at age thirteen in 954, immediately dependent on the great magnates — above all Hugh the Great, then his son Hugh Capet — who effectively controlled the kingdom while the young king's authority remained nominal for years. The Mâcon mint operated under comital authority throughout this period, its output reflecting the progressive fragmentation of Carolingian royal coinage as local lords asserted tighter control over minting rights. By Lothair's reign, the distinction between royal and comital issues from Burgundian mints had grown deliberately blurred.
