Almenar is a small municipality in the Segrià comarca of Lleida, and like hundreds of Catalan and Aragonese towns during the Spanish Civil War, its ajuntament issued emergency fractional currency in 1937 when Republican-zone coin shortages became acute. The central government's inability to supply enough small-denomination coinage forced local councils to print their own — legally dubious, practically necessary.
At 52 × 35 mm, this is among the smaller examples of the genre. The thick card stock was chosen for durability over genuine paper, which tended to disintegrate quickly in daily market use.
