Additional information

Lothair of Supplinburg ruled Saxony as duke from 1106 before his election as Holy Roman Emperor in 1125, a tenure that placed Brunswick at the center of a prolonged conflict with the Hohenstaufen over imperial succession. His coinage reflects the decentralized minting practices of early 12th-century Saxony, where local lords and episcopal authorities operated with considerable autonomy — ducal issues from this period are correspondingly scarce in the archaeological record. Kluge's Karolingisch catalog attribution places this among a small, closely studied group of pre-imperial Brunswick deniers.
