Albert Michaud, "Les monnaies des princes-évêques de Bâle", 1905 #90'.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Pfennig ND from Bishopric of Basel made of Silver is that it was minted during a time when the Bishopric of Basel was an independent state within the Holy Roman Empire, and the coinage was used as a symbol of the bishop's authority and power.
