1 Peseta El Catllar

El Catllar is a small municipality in the Camp de Tarragona, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional currency when the Republic's coin supply collapsed after 1936. The hoarding of metallic coinage — driven by wartime panic — left local commerce effectively without small change, forcing ajuntaments to fill the gap with locally printed paper or card. Turró catalogued these emissions systematically; #789 places this note within a well-documented but enormous body of Republican municipal issues.

Nicasi Randé's signature as authorizing official is the primary authentication mechanism alongside the applied stamp — typical for emissions of this scale and urgency.
