Historical informations
Quadruple Gold Florin of Pilgrim II of Puchheim (1365–1396)
Struck in Salzburg during the reign of Archbishop Pilgrim II of Puchheim, this exceptional medieval coin reflects the growing economic and political power of the Archbishopric of Salzburg. In 1366, Emperor Charles IV granted Pilgrim II the privilege of minting gold coins. Inspired by the Florentine florin, Salzburg’s gold coinage featured Saint John the Baptist on one side and the archbishopric’s coat of arms on the other. The quadruple denomination likely served primarily as a prestigious high-value coin rather than for everyday transactions.
