| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears the municipal emblem of Menorca, depicting a stylised coat of arms with symbolic devices, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The circular legend C.MVNICIPALES Ð MENORCA runs along the periphery, with the date 1937 incorporated at the base of the legend. The lettering is rendered in raised relief against a flat field, consistent with the emergency coinage style of the Spanish Civil War period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Menorca remained under Republican control throughout the Spanish Civil War, effectively isolated after Nationalist forces took the mainland Balearics. The Consell Municipal issued these brass pieces in 1937 to address a severe shortage of small change — hoarding and the disruption of normal supply chains from the peninsula had stripped the island of circulating coinage almost entirely. The island surrendered peacefully to Nationalist forces in February 1939, one of the last Republican holdouts in Spanish territory.
