Leopold VI (1176 – 28 July 1230), known as Leopold the Glorious (der Glorreiche), was the Duke of Styria from 1194 and the Duke of Austria from 1198 to his death in 1230. He was a member of the House of Babenberg.Interesting fact
The Denier - Leopold VI (Enns) ND (1198-1230) coin from the Duchy of Austria (Austrian States) is notable for its unusual silver content. While most coins of its time were made of a copper-silver alloy, this coin was made of pure silver, which gives it a distinctive bright white color. This makes it stand out from other coins of the same era and adds to its collectibility.
