Interesting fact
The 1¼ Guldiner coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg, minted in 1522, features an image of Saint Rupert, the patron saint of Salzburg, on its reverse side. This image was included to signify the coin's connection to the Bishopric and to emphasize the importance of religion in the region at the time.
