1 Peseta La Pobla de Montornès

La Pobla de Montornès is a small municipality in the Camp de Tarragona, and like hundreds of Catalan towns during the Civil War, it resorted to locally issued paper when the Republican government's coin shortage — driven by hoarding, melting, and wartime disruption — made fractional currency essentially unavailable by mid-1937. These municipal emergency issues were authorized under a Republican decree that effectively deputized local councils as temporary monetary authorities, a practical concession to chaos rather than a planned policy.

Imprenta Solé in Tarragona handled a notable volume of these small-town emisiones, which accounts for the family resemblance across several Turró-catalogued pieces from the province. The Turró reference 1916 places this among the better-documented Camp de Tarragona issues, though survival rates for single-peseta notes from villages of this size remain low.
