Os de Balaguer is a small municipality in the Noguera comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of Catalan and Aragonese towns during the Civil War, its ajuntament issued emergency fractional currency in 1937 when Republican Spain's coinage supply collapsed almost entirely. The Republican government had been hoarding metal for the war effort, and silver and copper coins simply stopped appearing in everyday commerce. Local councils stepped in because nobody else would.
The Imprenta Unió Obrera in nearby Balaguer — a workers' collective print shop operating under wartime collectivization — handled production for several surrounding municipalities. These small-run local emissions were never redeemed after the Nationalist victory in 1938.
