Qualified C2099
Qualified Frankish ancestry of Mallorcan accounting through the Crown of Catalonia-Aragon: MEC6's account-system synthesis supports the older ancestry. This does not establish Valencia as the immediate parent or turn coin replacement into debt conversion. The 800–1300 research envelope is not a foundation date.

Inference C2109
Felloni traces the Carolingian pound–shilling–denier system through regional Pavia money to Genoa’s local reckoning. The Genoese mint contract of 1141 specifies lire, and his account follows the Genoese lira through later changes. This supports qualified inherited account ancestry through Italian intermediates, not direct Frankish-to-Genoese debt conversion or parity. The 1138–1141 interval covers mint authorization and account documentation; it is not an exact separation date.
