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: Bellvís - Province: Lleida - Autonomous community: Catalonia

NOTE:: Two issues of 1 Peseta and 50 Centimos banknotes were made. In all of them the design remained similar, with the only difference of the size of the word "DE" in obverse, the best way to distinguish both issues is by serial numbers.

1st ISSUE (No date, but issued on July 1937): 1 Peseta, Turró#400. Word "DE" smaller, Serial number from 0001 to 5500.

2nd ISSUE (No date, issued on an unknown date): 1 Peseta, Turró#402. Word "DE" bigger, Serial number from 5501 to 10000. (Image of this page)
