| Additional information |
The Bishopric of Gurk was founded in 1072 by Archbishop Gebhard of Salzburg, carved out of Salzburg's territorial authority as a dependent diocese in Carinthia. The bishops of Gurk held the right to strike coin from an early date, though attributing specific issues to individual bishops within this period remains genuinely difficult — the "unknown ruler" designation here is not a cataloging gap so much as an honest reflection of the historical record. CNA Cq32 falls within the episcopates of Dietrich II, Walther, or Henry II, none of whom left sufficient documentary evidence to pin the die to a name.
