Torregrossa is a small municipality in the Pla d'Urgell comarca of Lleida, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish Republican municipalities during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency paper money when the national coinage supply collapsed after 1936. These local issues — generically called "moneda local" or "bitllets municipals" — were authorized under Republican decree to fill the vacuum left by hoarded and melted metal coin. Turró's catalog documents over three thousand such issues; #2543 places Torregrossa squarely in the middle of that extraordinary proliferation.
Most municipal issues from villages of this size were printed by local job shops, sometimes with rudimentary typography. Survival rates vary sharply — some villages produced only a few hundred notes.
