| Additional information |
Teresa de Entenza inherited the County of Urgell through her mother Aurembiaix, whose own succession had been bitterly contested — Urgell had passed in and out of Aragonese royal control before Teresa's line reasserted comital authority. These small brass issues, struck at Agramunt, circulated during a period when the county's autonomy was already eroding toward full absorption into the Crown of Aragon, which came definitively with Teresa's son Ermengol X dying without issue in 1314 — the very year this coinage begins.
