| Opmerkingen |
Besalú is a small medieval town in the Garrotxa region of Girona, and like hundreds of Catalan municipalities during the Civil War, its ayuntamiento was forced into issuing its own fractional currency after the Republican government's decree of May 1937 authorized local emergency emissions to address the acute shortage of small change. The Nationalist naval blockade and wartime hoarding had stripped coins from circulation almost entirely by mid-1936.
Printed by Imprenta C. Barnés in Palamós — a coastal Girona town with a modest commercial printing trade — the note is one of the less frequently encountered Catalan municipals, reflecting both the small population of Besalú and the short window before the Nationalist advance into Catalonia in early 1939 effectively ended circulation of all Republican local issues.
