Almenar is a small municipality in the Segrià comarca of Lleida, and like dozens of Catalan and Aragonese towns it resorted to issuing its own emergency fractional currency during the Spanish Civil War after the Republican government's coinage supply collapsed in 1936–37. These municipal paper issues — generically called "moneda local" or "bitllets municipals" — were produced locally, often on whatever card stock was available, which is why thickness and quality vary so sharply even within the same series.
Turró catalogues this as #121, placing it firmly within the documented Catalan municipal issues, though surviving examples are scarce simply because most were redeemed, discarded, or destroyed once the war ended and the issues lost all validity.
