Issued by the Republican government during the Civil War, this note was printed in Britain at a moment when the Republic's financial position was deteriorating rapidly. The Soviet Union had taken delivery of Spain's gold reserves in 1936 — ostensibly for safekeeping — and the Republic was increasingly dependent on foreign credit and arms purchases that drained what remained of its hard currency.
Luis Nicolau D'Olwer, one of the signatories, was a Catalan economist and former minister who served as governor of the Banco de España under the Republic. His name on a 5000-peseta note carries some weight: denominations this large were not instruments of everyday commerce.
