50 Céntimos Lluçà

Lluçà is a tiny municipality in the Osona comarca of Catalonia, and like hundreds of similarly small Catalan towns, it issued its own emergency paper money during the Spanish Civil War. These local issues — collectively called "moneda de necessitat" or "guerra civil" notes — flooded the region from 1936 onward as the Republican government struggled to maintain coin circulation. A municipality with a population that could fit in a modest church hall was nonetheless authorized to print its own fractional currency.

Turró's catalog remains the definitive reference for these Catalan local emissions, and the low sequence number here reflects Lluçà's modest output. Survivorship is unpredictable — some village issues are common, others essentially unfindable.
