Additional information

Rodez passed to the French crown through the marriage of Cecilia of Comminges to Henri I, Count of Rodez, and this denier was struck under their successor Cecilia of Rodez, who held the county as one of the last independent Rouergue nobles before Angevin absorption. The Dyplique féodales reference places this squarely among the thinning billon issues of southern French baronial mints — output shrinking as royal monetary ordinances tightened control over feudal coinage rights across the Midi.
