Additional information

Rudolf and Meinhard II governed in an unusual joint arrangement following the settlement of territorial disputes between the Archbishopric of Salzburg and the County of Tyrol — coinage struck under dual authority was a practical acknowledgment of overlapping jurisdictions in the Friesach minting region rather than any gesture of political harmony. Friesach itself had been one of the most important silver coin-producing centers in the German-speaking lands since the twelfth century, its output circulating widely across the southeastern Alpine territories and into the Balkans.
