Need help to ID Medieval Pfennig coin

5 posts
Hello,

anyone who can help me identify the coin or the legend of this coin?
I seem to read HIRI (Henricus?) and ending with IMPER (Imperialis).

The other side with the stylized church seems to have the A letter which i recall seeing before, on a Brandenburg coin? I think. Other text I have problems reading.

Metal: Silver
Diameter: 19mm
Weight: 0.80

Hello,

I also read HIRICVS IMPER +

The only coins I found with HIRICVS instead of HENRICVS to design the name Henricus are polish

​Yes indeed it is HIRICVS

Hendrik II as emperor (1014-1024) ?

​Yes that is is him and thanks guys for identifying the legend.
Now I just have to find from which mint this coin is, as similar types have existed from Regensburg, Deventer and many other Imperial mints of the HRE.
I'm sure I have seen the symbol with the A and the beam on top before but just can't recall where. I think this might be similar to some kind of mintmark which identifies the mint.
