Commenti	Vilafant is a small municipality in the Alt Empordà comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of similarly sized towns, it issued emergency paper money during the Spanish Civil War when metallic coinage effectively vanished from circulation. These local issues — collectively called "moneda de necessitat" — were authorized under a 1936 Generalitat decree that gave municipalities the right to print their own fractional currency to keep local commerce functioning. Turró catalogues this as #2780, placing it within a well-documented but sprawling series. The thick card stock was a practical choice: small municipalities lacked access to proper banknote paper, and heavier stock survived handling better in a village economy.
