| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears a plain Greek cross with equal arms extending to an inner beaded or plain circle, dividing the field into four quadrants. The cross is boldly struck and characteristic of the anonymous cross-type deniers commonly produced in the feudal mints of the Crown of Aragon. The surrounding legend reads +VRGELLENSIS in Latin majuscules, identifying the county of Urgell as the issuing authority. The overall style is consistent with contemporary Catalan feudal billon coinage of the early thirteenth century, with an irregular flan and variable strike quality. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guerau IV de Cabrera ruled Urgell during a period of intense pressure from both the Crown of Aragon and the ambitions of neighboring lords in the Pyrenean borderlands. His coinage at Balaguer — the county's principal mint town on the Segre — reflects the fragmented monetary geography of early 13th-century Catalonia, where each county still jealously maintained its own issues despite growing Aragonese consolidation. The billon content is characteristically low, consistent with the general debasement across petty Catalan feudal coinages of this generation.
