Beschrijving voorzijde Central vignette composed of two figures in a stylized Art Deco manner: a helmeted soldier and a worker, rendered together as a symbol of the wartime alliance between the civilian population and the Republican military forces during the Spanish Civil War. The design is executed in a bold, simplified graphic style typical of Catalan emergency issues of the period.

Opmerkingen

Figueres issued its own emergency fractional currency in 1937 under the anarcho-syndicalist collectivization framework that swept Catalonia during the Civil War. The printer, Indústries Madriguera, had been collectivized by its workers — the "Col·lectivitzada" suffix in the firm's name was not decorative but a legal designation under the October 1936 Catalan collectivization decree. Local municipalities across the region filled the chronic small-change shortage left by hoarded Republican coins by commissioning their own paper fractions, most of which were invalidated within months.

Turró catalogues dozens of these municipal emissions; Figueres sits near the French border, which gave its wartime currency an unexpectedly short practical life once the Republican collapse pushed refugees through the town in early 1939.
