| Beschrijving voorzijde | Enthroned frontal figure of the Archbishop in full pontifical vestments, depicted in high relief in the characteristic Friesacher Pfennig style. The figure holds a crozier in the left hand and raises the right hand in a gesture of benediction. The throne and ecclesiastical robes are rendered with schematic linear detail typical of early 13th-century Austrian bracteate-influenced coinage. The flan is irregularly shaped with a broad, flat fabric characteristic of hammered medieval silver. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Friesach, in Carinthia, was one of the most important minting centers in the medieval German-speaking world, and the Archbishops of Salzburg exploited it aggressively from the late twelfth century onward. The so-called Friesacher Pfennig became a dominant trade currency across a wide arc of central and southeastern Europe — used in Hungary, Bohemia, and along the Adriatic routes — long before any standardized regional coinage existed to displace it.
Eberhard II held the see of Salzburg from 1200 to 1246, a tenure marked by constant friction with the Babenberg dukes and the broader chaos of Staufen imperial politics. His later issues, falling within this 1235–1246 window, were struck as that political order began its terminal unraveling.
