Alcover is a small municipality in the Camp de Tarragona, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency in 1937 after Republican authorities failed to supply enough small-denomination coinage to keep local commerce functioning. The peseta shortage was acute enough that municipal issues like this one became de facto legal tender within their issuing communities — accepted out of necessity rather than any formal monetary authority.
Printed by Imprenta Solé in Tarragona, the note shares a print shop with dozens of similar municipal issues from the province, which makes attributing undated or unstamped survivors genuinely tricky. The official stamp is the primary authentication mechanism for this series.
