| Aanvullende informatie |
Friesach, in Carinthia, was one of the most significant minting centers in the German-speaking lands during the 12th and 13th centuries — the "Friesacher Pfennig" type became so widely circulated across Central Europe that it functioned as a regional trade currency well beyond its issuing authority's borders. Frederick II of Walchen served as Archbishop of Salzburg from 1270 to 1284, a period marked by persistent conflict with the Habsburgs as Rudolf I consolidated power after his election as German king in 1273. The archbishopric's minting rights at Friesach were a direct economic lever in those disputes.
