| Comments |
Vallmoll is a small municipality in the Camp de Tarragona comarca, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency when Republican-zone coinage effectively vanished from circulation after 1936. The hoarding of metal drove municipalities — regardless of size or administrative capacity — to produce local paper or card scrip to cover day-to-day transactions that coins had previously handled.
Turró catalogues this as #2683, placing it firmly within the enormous documented universe of Catalan guerra civil municipals. At under 40mm square, this is about as small as emergency scrip gets.
