Comments

Local Spanish Civil War banknotes: Created by municipalities, cooperatives, unions and other organizations due to the scarcity of fiduciary currency in small purchases and exchanges during the Spanish Civil War.

Municipality: Súria - Province: Barcelona - Autonomous community: Catalonia

NOTE:: Two issues of 1 Peseta, 50 Centimos and 25 Centimos banknotes were made, with the only difference in the color tone (more vivid color tone in the 2nd Issue) and the serial number (best way to distinguish them). Both issues kept printed the date of the first one (May 3, 1937)

1st ISSUE (May 3, 1937) 50 Centimos, Turró#2417, Serial number from 00001 to 12000. (Image below from Subastas Ibercoin website)


2nd ISSUE (May 3, 1937, but issued later on an unknown date) 50 Centimos, Turró#2420, Serial number from 12001 to 20000. (Image of this page)
