| Additional information |
Ludolphe was the son of Otto I and briefly held Swabia before a failed rebellion against his father cost him the duchy in 954. His tenure lasted only five years, and his death the following year on campaign in Italy closed the matter permanently. Coinage attributable to his rule at Breisach is exceptionally scarce — the political circumstances gave little time for an established mint output, and the Kluge attribution itself rests on a small corpus of surviving specimens.
