Prat de Comte is a small municipality in the Terra Alta comarca of Tarragona — population in the 1930s barely in the hundreds. Like dozens of similarly sized Catalan towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency scrip in 1937 after the Republican government's decree authorizing local currency to address the acute coin shortage that followed the hoarding and melting of silver and copper coinage from 1936 onward.
The stamp security feature on a note this small, from an issuer this local, was essentially symbolic — a council seal pressed onto card stock, the authority of a village trying to keep its market economy functional while a war consumed the country around it.
