Benifallet is a small municipality in the Baix Ebre comarca of Tarragona, and this note is a product of the acute small-change shortage that paralyzed Republican-controlled Catalonia from mid-1936 onward. With the peseta effectively collapsing in circulation and coin hoarding endemic, hundreds of Catalan townships — many with populations under a thousand — authorized their own emergency paper. Benifallet was one of them.
Imprenta Querol in Tortosa supplied several of these municipal issues across the region, working under considerable pressure and with limited materials. The thick card stock was a practical response to the expectation of heavy local handling — these circulated as change tokens, not banknotes in any formal sense.
The official stamp was the primary guarantee of validity, its absence rendering the piece worthless within the issuing municipality.
