Denier - Hartwig

Beschrijving voorzijde	Central field dominated by a bold cross pattee dividing the flan into four quadrants, each containing a combination of letters and pellets rendered in a crude but characteristic early medieval hammered style. The cross arms are broad and flat, with small wedge-shaped terminals. Scattered annulets and pellets fill the inter-quadrant spaces, reflecting the decorative conventions of Ottonian-era episcopal coinage. The irregular flan edge is typical of hand-struck Salzburg deniers of the early eleventh century. The overall design is schematic and non-figural, consistent with contemporary ecclesiastical issues of the Bavarian region.

Aanvullende informatie	Hartwig I served as Archbishop of Salzburg from 1018 to 1023, a tenure cut short by his deposition — he was removed from office by Holy Roman Emperor Henry II following a prolonged dispute over ecclesiastical authority and imperial prerogative. The brevity of his reign makes coinage struck under his authority genuinely scarce, and the Hahn Radas classification reflects how thinly these issues survive across institutional collections.
