1 Peseta La Llagosta

La Llagosta is a small municipality north of Barcelona, and like hundreds of Catalan towns during the Civil War, its local government issued emergency fractional currency — *moneda de necessitat* — to address the near-total disappearance of small coinage from circulation after 1936. The Generalitat de Catalunya had authorized this improvised municipal scrip, but standardization was essentially nonexistent: each ajuntament designed and printed its own, often on whatever card stock was locally available.

Turró catalogues this as #1320, placing it within a well-documented but genuinely enormous series. Survival rates vary wildly — some La Llagosta emissions are common; others were printed in tiny runs for a population that barely exceeded a few thousand.
