| Additional information |
Andreas Jakob von Dietrichstein served as Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg from 1747 until his death in 1753, one of the shorter episcopates of the 18th century. Salzburg's mint operated under direct archiepiscopal authority — not imperial — meaning these ducats were issued on the personal initiative and monetary prerogative of the Archbishop himself, a privilege the see had held since the medieval period.
The Zöttl reference numbers span five varieties across the four-year window, suggesting active die work throughout the episcopate rather than a single concentrated issue.
