10 Céntimos Arbeca

Arbeca is a small municipality in Les Garrigues, Lleida, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional emergency currency after the collapse of small-change circulation in 1936–37. These local issues — known as "moneda de guerra" or "papel moneda municipal" — were typically produced with whatever printing resources a town hall could access, which in many cases meant a local press or even a rubber stamp on cardboard stock.

The Turró catalogue remains the definitive reference for these issues. Survival rates vary enormously by municipality; smaller towns produced lower quantities, but wartime disruption and the post-Franco suppression of Republican-era material destroyed a significant proportion.
