| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central vignette of the municipal coat of arms, flanked by two allegorical figures: at left, a standing industrial worker set against a factory backdrop incorporating a gear wheel, winged helmet, and caduceus; at right, a peasant figure holding ears of wheat and a sickle. The composition unites industrial and agrarian Republican symbolism in a wartime emergency issue context. |

One of hundreds of municipal emergency notes issued across Catalonia during the Civil War, when the Republican government's inability to maintain small-denomination coinage in circulation forced individual towns to print their own scrip. Montornès del Vallès, a small industrial municipality in the Vallès Oriental, issued this peseta through Gràfiques Unificades — a Granollers print shop that produced emergency currency for numerous nearby municipalities during 1937, making regional attribution by printing style alone unreliable without the issuer text.
The thick card stock was a practical choice: thinner paper deteriorated rapidly in daily commercial use, and most of these local issues were expected to circulate only until Madrid or Barcelona restored a functioning small-change supply. Many never were formally redeemed.
