| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain paper note with two distinct typewritten or rubber-stamped text blocks applied in blue-black and violet ink. The denomination "UNA PESETA" appears at the upper left in dark blue letterpress type, while the issuing authority inscription is applied below in violet stamp impression across the centre of the note. No vignette or decorative underprint is present, consistent with the improvised emergency issue character of Spanish Civil War municipal currency. |

Villafranca del Cid — known in Valencian as Vilafranca — is a small inland municipality in Castellón province. Like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency in 1937 after the Republic's central government proved unable to keep small-denomination coinage in circulation. Silver had been hoarded, copper requisitioned, and the everyday economy was grinding to a halt on transactions worth less than a peseta.
The Garrido-Montaner catalogue reference places this firmly within the vast, still-incompletely-documented body of Spanish local wartime issues. Many of these municipal notes survive in remarkably small quantities — print runs were modest and redemption, where it even occurred, was often chaotic.
