Beschrijving voorzijde The municipal coat of arms of Sitges, a heraldic vignette with a fortified tower motif, is positioned at the lower left within a green-tinted guilloche underprint. The heading 'AJUNTAMENT DE SITGES' appears in bold letterpress at the top centre, with the bearer guarantee text and date 'Sitges, 1er de juny del 1937' in the central field. Two manuscript signatures appear below, attributed to the Alcalde President and the Conseller de Finances, with the series letter and serial number running vertically along the right margin; the entire note is framed by an ornate star-and-lozenge decorative border.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse is dominated by a repeating guilloche border of concentric circles enclosing the entire field, with a faint architectural vignette as underprint in the central area. Two circular medallions, one at left and one at right, each bear the numeral '1' above the word 'PESSETA' within a globe-like guilloche pattern. The central text block states the note's validity for circulation throughout the municipality, with the series letter and serial number printed below.

Opmerkingen

Sitges issued its own emergency fractional currency in 1937 under the decentralized monetary conditions of the Spanish Republic during the Civil War, when the collapse of small-denomination coinage forced hundreds of Catalan municipalities to print their own paper. The Ajuntament contracted Seix i Barral — better known as a literary publisher than a securities printer — which accounts for the slightly unconventional production values seen across this series.

Turró documents these municipal emissions exhaustively; #2379 places this note within a well-catalogued but genuinely scarce group, as print runs were small and most surviving examples saw heavy use before the Nationalist victory ended their validity in 1939.
