Little in the way of context, I'm afraid. *I.C. de Zaragoza* appears at the end of a Zaragoza City Council certificate, followed immediately by the date, which might imply it's the venue.
Comes up a lot on the Internet, typically at the end of resolutions/bylaws for the city, but haven't had any success as yet.
Any help appreciated!

Actually, my final recommendation would be: "I.C. of Zaragoza" and that's it! We do not positively know in either language whether the "I" is Ilustre or Inmortal, so the ambiguity remains in both languages and is therefore faithful!

Comment: "Thanks to Henry, Jose and everyone else for useful feedback. As it's a fairly formal business doc, I'm inclined to follow Jose's suggestion and simply put "In the City of Zaragoza"."

Assuming that this has to be translated at all.
"Eternal City of . . .." precedes the name of some of the world's great cities, as online references would bear out.
