| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse shows incuse or flat impression resulting from the single-die hammered technique common to thin pfennig coinage of this era. The surface is largely plain with faint ghost impressions from the obverse strike, as is typical for medieval billon pfennigs of the Salzburg mint produced during the episcopate of Sigismund von Volkersdorf (1452–1461). |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sigismund von Volkersdorf held the archbishopric from 1452 until his death in 1461, a tenure defined largely by friction with the secular nobility of the region and ongoing disputes over ecclesiastical jurisdiction. Salzburg's archbishops held the right to coin money as a secular prerogative of their princely authority within the Holy Roman Empire — a privilege jealously maintained and exercised even during politically turbulent administrations.
At 0.41g, this pfennig sits at the lower practical threshold of billon coinage, where the silver content was already marginal by mid-fifteenth century standards.
