| Beschrijving voorzijde | Mitred bust of a bishop in three-quarter facing view, turned to the right, with a pellet above the mitre. A crosier is depicted in the right field. The effigy is rendered in the bold, simplified style typical of late medieval episcopal bracteate-related coinage, contained within a beaded or plain inner circle. The irregular flan exhibits four pinched points at the cardinal positions, characteristic of the bracteate tradition of the Upper Rhine region. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Otto von Grandson — better known as a Savoyard knight and diplomat in the service of Edward I of England — held the Bishopric of Basel from 1306 to 1309 under genuinely contested circumstances. His appointment was a papal provision over local chapter opposition, and he never fully consolidated ecclesiastical authority before his death.
The Basel pfennig of this period was struck under the bishop's mint right, a privilege the see had held since the tenth century. Otto's tenure was short enough that documented output from his episcopate is sparse.
