Hello,
I just checked a coin I validated as Salzburg pfennig:
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces135908.html
It is
not a coin from Salzburg, this Otto was never Bishop there but rather Duke of Merania.
See wiki: The Duchy of Merania (German: Herzogtum Meranien, Slovene: Vojvodina Meranija) was a fiefdom of the Holy Roman Empire from 1152 until 1248.
The coin was minted in Gutenwerth (present Slovenia) and has a CNA number (corpus Numorum Austriacorum).
Auction houses and sellers often put it with the Austrian States. This short lived - 100 yr - Duchy was born at the same time as the Duchy of Austria. It is currently in what is now Slovenia, maybe a bit of Italy, Croatia.
Ruckser (catalogue of Austrian Medieval coins) has those, in a separate section.
What should we do ? Create a Duchy of Merania in Slovenia ? do it in the Austrian States ? Italian States ?

It seems you are correct
https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2196003
On another forum someone pointed me to a link which described this coin as being from Salzburg.
Yes it should be created but Im also not sure under where, the more I read about the Herzogtum Meranien, the more unsure I am :-)

New issuer of course, but where to put it? Austrian states seem like good solution, I am not sure, maybe it could be under Slovenia, but it would be quite lost there.

Agree Austrian States is probably best.

Hello,
Fine.
Does an admin have to do that ? Or can I just create a new currency ?

You can, I will create new issuer afterwards (it will need the currency anyway).

Hello,
Done. I let you clean the issuers and currencies. Put "Duché de Méranie" in french.
Thanks,
André
