Borges del Camp is a small municipality in the Baix Camp comarca of Tarragona, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns it issued its own emergency paper currency during the Civil War after the Republican government's decree of 1937 authorised local authorities to produce small-denomination notes to address the chronic shortage of coin in circulation. The Consell Municipal — the revolutionary municipal council operating under wartime conditions — contracted the job to Impremta Col·lectiva in nearby Reus, a press that handled similar commissions for several towns in the region.
Turró catalogues this as #494, placing it firmly within the dense taxonomy of Catalan local issues. Very few of these municipal notes survived in any quantity; most were redeemed or simply discarded once the Nationalist forces consolidated control of the area in 1938 and the issues were rendered worthless overnight.
