Aigüestoses del Llobregat — a small municipality in the Berguedà comarca — issued its own emergency paper money during the Spanish Civil War, as hundreds of Catalan and Spanish local governments did between 1936 and 1939 when metallic coinage vanished almost entirely from circulation. The Generalitat de Catalunya had authorized this practice, but execution was entirely local: design, printing, and distribution fell to whatever resources the ajuntament had on hand.
Turró's catalog remains the definitive reference for these Catalan municipals, and the relatively high Turró number suggests this emission is among the less common survivors.
