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: Foixà - Province: Girona - Autonomous community: Catalonia

NOTE: According to Antoni Turró's main reference catalog for municipal Civil War banknotes of Catalonia, 1 Peseta banknotes were issued in Foixà with another design (see https://en.numista.com/catalogue/note332832.html), so this banknote could be a later fake note for collectors.
