The sede vacante designation places this piece in the interregnum following the death of Bishop Otto II of Utrecht in 1227, during which the chapter governed the bishopric pending a new appointment. Episcopal minting rights in the Low Countries were fiercely guarded, and the chapter's decision to continue striking in their own authority — rather than suspend production — reflects the commercial pressure of Deventer's growing role as a Hanseatic trading center on the IJssel.
