Opmerkingen

Andorra had no formal banking system and no currency of its own when the Spanish Civil War severed reliable access to French and Spanish notes in 1936. The Consell General — the country's parliament, functioning here as its de facto monetary authority — issued this note as an emergency measure, one of only a handful of denominations produced at that moment. The series is among the rarest co-principality paper issues in existence; total print runs were extremely small, and much of what circulated was damaged or lost in the upheaval that continued across the border.

Pick lists only four notes for this first issue. That brevity says everything about the scale of the operation.
