Oix is a tiny municipality in the Garrotxa comarca of Girona — population well under a hundred even today — which makes the decision to issue emergency fractional currency in 1937 a striking measure of how thoroughly the Republican monetary system had fragmented during the Civil War. Catalonia alone produced hundreds of these local vals and xecs, as coins vanished from circulation almost entirely by mid-1936.
Gràfiques Minerva in Olot printed for numerous small Garrotxa municipalities during this period, which gives the series a regional coherence that individual town attributions can obscure. Three signatories — the alcalde, the finance councillor, and the secretary-interventor — suggests the issuing committee took the legal formalities seriously, however brief the note's useful life.
