Denier - Leopold VI Enns

Leopold VI ruled Austria and Styria simultaneously from 1194, making his reign one of the more administratively complex of the Babenberg dukes. The Enns mint served as a key issuing point under his authority, positioned at the boundary between Upper and Lower Austria — a geography that gave it commercial relevance beyond simple regional supply. These thin bracteate-influenced deniers circulated in a period when Austrian silver coinage was still finding coherent regional identity, well before the Vienna pfennig dominated local exchange in the later thirteenth century.
