| Opmerkingen |
Vic's local emergency currency from 1937 belongs to the vast ecosystem of Catalan municipal fractional notes produced during the Civil War, when the Republican government's inability to maintain adequate coin supply forced towns to print their own. Hundreds of Catalan municipalities did exactly this, and the results vary wildly in quality and survival rates.
Indústries Gràfiques Viladot, a Barcelona commercial printer, handled output for numerous municipalities simultaneously, which sometimes complicates attribution when undated or unlabeled examples surface without their series markings intact.
