| Additional information |
Pilgrim II von Puchheim held the archbishopric of Salzburg from 1365 to 1396, a tenure defined by persistent friction with the Habsburg dukes over territorial jurisdiction in the Alpine passes. His gold gulden coinage drew directly on the Florentine fiorino model that had been spreading north through the Empire since mid-century, adopted by ecclesiastical mints as much for its commercial credibility as for its gold content — merchants trusted the type on sight.
Fr#571 places this among the documented Friedberg gold types for the archbishopric, though Salzburg's episcopal mint output from this period survives in small numbers relative to secular issues of comparable date.
