| Opmerkingen |
During the Spanish Civil War, the Republican zone suffered an acute shortage of small-denomination metallic currency — silver and copper had been hoarded, melted down, or simply ceased to circulate. Hundreds of Catalan municipalities responded by issuing their own paper fractional notes under legal cover provided by the Generalitat de Catalunya's June 1937 decree. Valls, a modest industrial town in Alt Camp, was one of them.
Printed locally by Imprenta E. Castells, the note never circulated beyond the municipal boundary. Redemption after the Nationalist victory in early 1939 was either non-existent or deeply unfavorable, and most surviving examples stayed in local hands rather than passing through any formal demonetization process.
