Comment
Albert Michaud, "Les monnaies des princes-évêques de Bâle", 1905 #72.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Pfennig - Gerhard von Vuippens ND (1310-1325) from Bishopric of Basel made of Silver weighing 0.32 g is that it features a unique design, with an image of a bishop on one side and a shield with a cross on the other. This design was used to signify the coin's origins and to show the bishop's authority.
