Opmerkingen	Pau is a small municipality in the Alt Empordà comarca of Catalonia, and this note is one of hundreds of hyperlocal emergency issues produced by Catalan town councils during the Spanish Civil War. When the Republican government's central banking system buckled under wartime pressure, municipalities were authorized — and in practice forced — to print their own fractional currency to keep local commerce functioning. The Consell Municipal de Pau issued this 1 Peseta to fill that gap. Turró catalogues these Alt Empordà issues systematically, but survival rates for small-town wartime paper are uneven at best.
