| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central vignette consists of a bunch of grapes paired with a fishing net and anchor, alluding to the dual economic identity of Port de la Selva as both a winemaking and seafaring community. The composition is rendered in a simple letterpress style typical of Spanish Civil War municipal emergency issues. Validity and date inscriptions are distributed across the note in Catalan. |

Port de la Selva is a small fishing village on the Costa Brava, and like hundreds of Catalan municipalities during the Civil War, its ajuntament issued its own fractional currency after the Republican government's decree of late 1936 effectively authorized local emergency notes to fill the acute shortage of small coin. The Trayter press in nearby Figueres handled a significant volume of these Empordà-area municipal issues, which gives the series a certain regional coherence — though the notes themselves were only valid within the issuing municipality's boundaries.
Turró catalogues this as #1968. Surviving examples are not rare as a type, but condition varies sharply given the rough handling typical of wartime pocket change.
