The thesis sets new models of coinage in Catalonia of the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries, from the study of minor currency issued by local councils and its relation to the main general currency issued in Barcelona. New hypotheses are proposed about the alleged continuity of these local emissions over time, about the identification of the coin types, and about its causes and origins, which must be located in Lleida shortly before 1300. The study focuses on three distinct periods. The first covers the "jaquesa" (aragonese) currency circulation area in Catalonia between 1298 and 1350, with some exceptions that lasts until 1460. The second period begins with the War against John II (1462) and continues until the currency reform of 1494. The third period, of lower intensity, starts from the first crisis of the reformed coinage in Barcelona (1508) until the outbreak of the second great crisis of minor coins in Catalonia (1556).
