Figuerola d'Orcau is a tiny municipality in the Pallars Jussà comarca of Lleida, and in 1937 it almost certainly had a population well under a few hundred. That a settlement of this scale was issuing its own paper money reflects the near-total collapse of small-denomination coin circulation across Republican Catalonia during the Civil War — the Spanish government's silver and copper coinage had vanished from daily trade almost entirely by mid-1936, hoarded or melted, and municipalities down to the village level stepped in to fill the gap.
Printed by Imprenta A. Figueres in Tàrrega, a regional commercial press that produced emergency notes for multiple surrounding municipalities in the same period. The Turró catalogue records this as #1011.
