Aragon coins catalog with values online
The County of Aragon was formed on the ruins of Charlemagne's empire on the banks of the river of the same name in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, with Zaragoza as its capital. It had always been dependent on the kingdom of Pamplona (Navarre).
In 1035, after the death of King Sancho III the Great of Pamplona (aka Count Sancho II of Aragon), Aragon passed to his illegitimate son Ramiro, who achieved independence in a war with his brothers and declared his possession a kingdom.
In XII century Barcelona and Catalonia were annexed to Aragon, in XIII - Valencia,
Majorca,
Sicily and
Sardinia, in XIV - Naples. So in the marriage of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile (1469), which foreshadowed the unification of Spain, the king of Aragon was not at all a poor relative. Although Aragon proper had always been the least economically developed part of the monarchy.
The unification with Castile was a dynastic union for Aragon (i.e. the following kings of Spain were also kings of Aragon, but only by right of succession from the previous kings of Aragon).
The kingdom was incorporated into Spain only in 1707.

Alfonso I the Battler (1104-1134)
Alfonso (1073-1134) succeeded his childless brother Pedro I.
After the death of Alfonso VI of Castile, the King of Aragon (and Navarre) claimed his power (he called himself Emperor of all Spain). The grounds for this, however, were much less than those of Alfonso VI - King of Castile, Leon, Galicia and Portugal, that is, indeed, most of Christian Spain. On the other hand, the marriage with the heiress to the Castilian crown, Uracca, and was concluded for the sake that the possessions of Alfonso VI ruled by a man, and then they went to the children of Urraca. This did not work out, because Uraca already had sons by her previous husband, who were supported by some of the nobility. And then in 1110. the Pope dissolved the marriage because the couple were close relatives. Frankly speaking, almost all royal dynasties of the Pyrenees were related to each other, but the Pope did not always pay attention to it.
In general, it was not possible to become an emperor and Alfonso concentrated on conquering lands from the Moors, for which he was nicknamed the Warrior (El Batallador). In 1118 Zaragoza was taken from the Moors, and the king's army reached Granada.
During the siege of the fortress of Fraga, the king was wounded and died soon after.
