| Additional information |
Pedro I inherited Aragon and Pamplona in 1094 following his father Sancho Ramírez's death during the siege of Huesca — killed by an arrow, the siege itself continuing until Pedro finally took the city in 1096. That victory opened the Ebro valley and set the strategic conditions for his later capture of Barbastro. Coinage struck at Monzón during his reign reflects a frontier economy operating under constant military pressure, with billon alloy quality varying noticeably across the type as silver supplies fluctuated with campaign cycles.
