The large numeral '15' dominates the left portion in red, with the denomination 'CTS.' to its right in matching letterpress. The coat of arms of Barcelona — a cross within a lozenge — appears to the right of centre, while the issuer legend 'AJUNTAMENT DE BARCELONA' is set in bold capitals across the upper portion of the note. |

One of dozens of fractional emergency notes produced by Catalan municipalities during the Civil War, when Republican Spain suffered an acute shortage of small metallic currency — silver and copper had largely vanished from circulation through hoarding and wartime disruption. The Ajuntament de Barcelona issued multiple denominations to keep retail transactions functioning in the city.
Turró catalogues these Barcelona municipal notes meticulously; #306 places this 15 céntimos piece within a well-documented but short-lived series, most of which was rendered obsolete well before the Nationalist capture of Barcelona in January 1939.
