1 Peseta Llorenç del Penedès

Llorenç del Penedès was one of hundreds of Catalan municipalities that issued emergency fractional currency during 1936–37, when the Republic's small-denomination coinage had effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply overwhelmed by wartime disruption. These local notes, collectively known as moneda de necessitat, were technically illegal under central government regulations but tolerated out of necessity. The Consell Municipal series from this town is among the more obscure of the Tarragona province emissions.

Turró#1370 is rarely encountered outside regional Catalan collections. Sugrañes of Tarragona printed many such municipal issues during this period, which gives the note a consistent regional character but does little to help survival rates — most were redeemed or destroyed once Republican monetary authority reasserted itself.
