| Comments |
Poble del Llierca is a tiny municipality in the Garrotxa comarca of Girona — during the Civil War, hundreds of Catalan townships at this scale issued their own small-denomination emergency paper because the Republic's fractional coinage had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted down almost immediately after July 1936. These municipal notes, known collectively as "paper moneda," were a locally organized response to a practical crisis, not a political gesture.
The printer, Imprenta C. Barnés of Palamós, handled emergency issues for several small municipalities along the Costa Brava and inland Girona, which gives this note a regional production cluster useful for comparative dating. Turró catalogues it as #1932.
