1 Peseta Pobla de Segur

Pobla de Segur is a small Pyrenean town in the Pallars Jussà comarca, and like hundreds of Catalan municipalities during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional currency after the Republican government's decree authorizing local emergency emissions in 1936. The national coin shortage — driven by silver hoarding and the wartime collapse of normal supply chains — forced even minor rural councils into the printing business. Josep Güell's local press was a logical choice; transporting notes from Barcelona would have been neither practical nor fast in a region already cut off by the front.

Turró catalogs over two thousand of these municipal issues, and Pobla de Segur's contribution is among the more geographically isolated, which tends to keep surviving quantities low.
