The County of Formbach, situated in what is now Lower Bavaria near the Inn River, was a minor but strategically positioned lordship whose coinage output was limited and closely tied to the authority of its ruling dynasty. Werinto-Dietrich's issues fall within a period of intense feudal fragmentation in the German-speaking lands following the Investiture Controversy, when even small comital houses asserted minting rights as a visible mark of independent jurisdiction. CNA B35 pieces are genuinely scarce in any condition.
