Albert Michaud, "Les monnaies des princes-évêques de Bâle", 1905 #80. Lists 14 varieties between 0.15-0.24g.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Stebler - Otto von Grandson coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The Bishopric of Basel, where the coin was minted, was a significant center of power and influence in the region, and the coin's production reflects the growing importance of trade and commerce during this period. The use of silver in the coin's minting also speaks to the value placed on this precious metal during the time.
