| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Light green underprint carries the Andorran coat of arms at upper centre, set within an ornamental guilloche border that frames the entire face. Brown letterpress text in Catalan occupies the central field, stating the denomination and the issuing authority. The overall layout is typographic in character, with the decorative perimeter enclosing the principal inscriptions. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Blue letterpress text on a plain light ground reproduces the full extract of Decree No. 112 authorizing this emergency issue, set in a compact typographic block that fills the reverse field. The Andorran coat of arms appears as an underprint vignette in the background, providing a subtle security element beneath the printed text. |

The Consell General — Andorra's parliamentary body, not a bank — issued paper currency during the Spanish Civil War period out of practical necessity. With Andorran commerce tightly linked to both France and Spain, the disruption of supply chains and regional financial instability in 1936 forced the co-principality to produce its own emergency notes. It was a genuinely unusual arrangement: a medieval feudal institution with no central bank improvising a monetary instrument.
This second issue followed closely on the first, suggesting the initial print run was exhausted quickly. Given Andorra's tiny population at the time — fewer than 6,000 inhabitants — the total quantity issued was almost certainly small, which partly accounts for the difficulty in finding survivors today in any reasonable condition.
