10 Céntimos El Morell

El Morell is a small municipality in Tarragonès, and like hundreds of Catalan towns during the Civil War, it resorted to locally produced emergency fractional currency when the Republic's small-change crisis made coins effectively unavailable from 1936 onward. These municipal issues — collectively catalogued by Andreu Turró — were typically produced in tiny print runs by whatever local means were available, often a town printer or even a rubber stamp on card.

At 53 × 48 mm and printed on heavy card stock, this piece was built to survive pocket wear better than thinner issues, though the survival rate for El Morell's emissions remains low given the scale of destruction in the postwar period.
