Andorra had no formal banking system and no currency of its own when the Spanish Civil War began disrupting coin supplies across the Pyrenees. This 1 Pesseta note — the first paper money ever issued by the Consell General — was a direct response to that shortage, produced to keep small transactions functioning in a co-principality that had operated on circulating Spanish and French coins for centuries.
The spelling "Pesseta" rather than the Spanish "Peseta" reflects Catalan orthography, the administrative language of Andorra. Pick lists only three denominations in this 1936 emergency series. Surviving examples are genuinely scarce; the total print run was small and wartime attrition was high.
