Rodonyà is a tiny municipality in the Alt Camp comarca of Tarragona — in 1937, its population barely exceeded a few hundred souls. Like dozens of similarly small Catalan and Valencian towns during the Civil War, the Ajuntament resorted to issuing its own paper emergency currency after the Republic's coinage effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted within months of the July 1936 uprising. These hyper-local emissions, collectively known as "moneda local de necessitat," were technically illegal under Republican monetary law but tolerated out of sheer practical necessity.
Arts Gràfiques Barnadas in El Vendrell printed for several surrounding municipalities during this period, which accounts for the family resemblance across a cluster of Alt Camp issues. Turró catalogues this emission as #2193.
