Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Eberhard II von Regensberg, who was the Bishop of Salzburg from 1200 to 1246. This coin is a rare example of a silver denier that was produced during his episcopate, and it features an image of the bishop on one side and a cross on the other. The coin's design and the fact that it was made of silver, a valuable and durable metal, reflect the wealth and influence of the Bishopric of Salzburg during this time period.
