| Additional information |
The Abbey of Sint-Truiden operated one of the Low Countries' more obscure ecclesiastical mints, its coinage authority derived from a series of imperial privileges granted during the Ottonian and early Salian periods. This anonymous denier — attributable only by type, not by named abbot — falls within a decade when the abbey was navigating the turbulent politics of the Prince-Bishopric of Liège, to whose diocese it belonged and with whom it frequently clashed over jurisdictional autonomy.
The Dann reference remaining unassigned signals how rarely these turn up catalogued in traceable collections.
