| Beschrijving keerzijde | Letterpress-printed entirely in red on cream paper, the reverse is dominated by a large central cartouche enclosing the numeral '25' and the denomination 'CÈNTIMS' in bold display type. The issuing authority legend arches across the upper portion and continues at the foot, flanked by two shield-shaped numeral panels bearing '25' at upper left and lower right. A lightly engraved guilloche-style radiating background fills the field behind the cartouche, and the printer's imprint 'CENTRO ADMÓN. MPAL. EMP. COL. CASANOVA 55 BARCELONA' appears in small type along the lower margin. |

Olesa de Montserrat, a small textile town in the Baix Llobregat comarca, issued emergency fractional currency during the Spanish Civil War when the Republican zone suffered a near-total collapse of small-denomination coinage. The state had requisitioned metal for the war effort, and municipalities across Catalonia were left to print their own solutions. Hundreds of towns did exactly that — the result was a chaotic patchwork of locally valid scrip, most of it redeemable only within the issuing municipality's own commerce.
The Tipografia C.A.M. in Barcelona handled production for multiple Catalan municipal issues during this period, which gives this note a certain standardized quality despite its intensely local character. Turró's catalog documents well over a thousand such emissions; this one falls at #1682.
