Additional information

Henri II held the archbishopric from 985 to 991, making the attribution window here slightly contested — Hahn's classification places these deniers within a broader Ottonian monetary framework that saw Salzburg operating with unusual mint autonomy for an ecclesiastical see of its size. The archbishops had received formal minting rights under earlier imperial grant, and Heinrich leveraged that privilege aggressively, producing a volume of silver coinage that circulated well into Bavaria and the Alpine passes.
