25 Céntimos Tortellà

Tortellà is a small municipality in the Garrotxa comarca of Girona province, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency paper currency when the supply of small-denomination coinage collapsed entirely after 1936. These locally printed notes — generically called "moneda local" or "bitllets locals" — were sanctioned by the Generalitat de Catalunya, which provided a degree of official cover for what were essentially municipal IOUs.

Turró catalogues over 2,500 of these emissions; number 2577 places Tortellà well into the long tail of small-town issuers.
