Bellmunt d'Urgell is a tiny municipality in the Lleida province — a village, really — and its decision to issue emergency paper money in 1937 reflects how completely the Spanish Civil War disrupted the national coin supply. Republican Spain saw hundreds of these municipal issues, known collectively as moneda local or paper de guerra, as copper and silver coins were hoarded or melted. The Consell Municipal had no bank behind it, only local authority and urgent necessity.
Printed by Imprenta Unió Obrera in nearby Balaguer, the worker-run press that produced emergency scrip for several small Urgell towns during the same period.
