Pont de Suert is a small Pyrenean town in the Lleida province of Catalonia, and like hundreds of other Spanish municipalities during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency when the Republic's coin supply collapsed after 1936. The Consell Municipal series from this town is among the more obscure local emissions — Turró catalogues it, but surviving examples are genuinely rare given how few were printed and how short the window of actual circulation was.
Imprenta Tremp, the press responsible, handled a significant number of these municipal issues from across the Lleida region, which occasionally makes attribution tricky when notes lack a clear issuer imprint.
