One of thousands of small-denomination emergency notes — *vals* — produced by Catalan municipalities during the Civil War after Republican Spain's coin shortage became acute in 1936–37. Hoarding of metallic currency, combined with wartime disruption of the Mint, left towns like Montmeló issuing their own fractional paper simply to keep local commerce moving. The Ajuntament had no banking infrastructure behind these; they were backed by nothing more formal than municipal authority.
El Secretariat Català printed for numerous local governments across Catalonia during this period, producing short runs that rarely survived the war in quantity. Montmeló itself is a small town north of Barcelona, and its issues were never widely distributed beyond the immediate area.
