1 Peseta Batea

Batea is a small municipality in the Terra Alta comarca of Tarragona province, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns, it issued its own emergency paper currency during the Civil War after the Republic's central government authorized local authorities to produce small-denomination notes to address the near-total disappearance of coin from circulation. The Ajuntament de Batea's 1 Peseta note, catalogued under Turró 325, belongs to that vast and often chaotic wave of municipal issues from 1936–1937.

Terra Alta saw significant front-line activity, and notes from this area had limited circulation windows before towns changed hands or administrations collapsed. Small runs, short lives.
