Comments	Bescanó is a small municipality in the Gironès comarca, and like hundreds of Catalan towns during the Civil War, its ajuntament issued its own emergency paper currency after the Republican government's decree of May 1937 authorized local authorities to fill the acute shortage of small-denomination coinage. The Turró catalogue documents these emissions systematically, but many survive only in very small quantities — production runs for village-level issues were often a few thousand notes at most, printed locally on whatever stock was available. Wartime paper quality on issues like this is notoriously inconsistent, and fading or foxing is common even in unhandled examples.
