Torregrossa is a small agricultural municipality in the Pla d'Urgell comarca of Lleida province, and like hundreds of Catalan and Spanish towns during 1936–1938, its local government issued emergency fractional currency when the Republic's coin supply collapsed almost immediately after the Civil War began. Metal was requisitioned for the war effort; small change simply ceased to exist in everyday commerce. Municipal councils, cooperatives, and even individual businesses filled the vacuum with paper.
These hyper-local emissions were technically illegal under Republican treasury regulations but were tolerated out of necessity. Most were redeemed or confiscated after Franco's forces consolidated control of the region in early 1938, which accounts for the low survival rate of Lleida provincial issues generally.
