| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a divided heraldic shield displaying the combined arms of the Archbishopric of Salzburg and the personal arms of Archbishop Matthäus Lang von Wellenburg, surmounted by a cardinal's hat or ecclesiastical ornaments. The date (e.g. 1520) appears below the shield. A beaded inner circle separates the arms from the surrounding Latin legend, which reads MATHEVS CARD ARCHIEPIS SALZ, identifying the issuer as Cardinal Archbishop of Salzburg. The coin is struck in the hammered style characteristic of early sixteenth-century Austrian ecclesiastical coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Matthäus Lang von Wellenburg was not a churchman by vocation — he was a Habsburg diplomat who rose through the church by royal favor, becoming Archbishop of Salzburg in 1519 after decades as Maximilian I's principal political fixer. His tenure opened against the immediate pressure of the Reformation, and Salzburg's mint output during these years reflects an administration more concerned with fiscal consolidation than spiritual matters. The Peasants' War of 1525 would end his minting of this type abruptly; Lang's brutal suppression of the Salzburg uprising that year remains one of the bloodiest episodes in the archbishopric's history.
