Opmerkingen

Tàrrega is a small agricultural town in the Lleida province of Catalonia, and like hundreds of other Spanish municipalities during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency paper money when coin shortages made small transactions nearly impossible. The Republican government's failure to maintain adequate fractional coinage in circulation forced local councils, cooperatives, and even individual businesses to fill the gap themselves — often printing notes on whatever press was available locally.

Crònica Targarina was the town's own newspaper press, which tells you something about the improvised nature of this entire monetary episode. The note's legitimacy lasted only as long as the Republic held the region.
