| Additional information |
Hillin of Falmagne served as Archbishop of Trier from 1152 until his death in 1169, a tenure marked by his close alignment with Frederick Barbarossa during the early years of the emperor's consolidation of imperial authority. Trier's archbishops held the title of arch-chancellor for Gaul and Burgundy, giving them both ecclesiastical and political weight that was reflected directly in their coinage rights.
Weiller 138 places this denier within a well-documented sequence of Trierian episcopal issues, though die variations within the type are not uncommon given the extended seventeen-year striking period.
