| Aanvullende informatie |
Lüthold II von Rötteln served as Bishop of Basel during a period of intense friction between the episcopal authority and the burghers of Basel, who were pressing steadily for communal autonomy. His decade in office saw the city's merchant class consolidating economic power that would, within a generation, begin to erode episcopal control over minting rights entirely. This pfennig was struck under that tension.
The Wüthrich collection reference places this piece among a tightly documented series of Basel bracteate-influenced issues — thin, fragile, and rarely surviving without cracking along the flan edges.
