Les is a small municipality in the Vall d'Aran, the Pyrenean valley whose unique Occitan-speaking population and geographic isolation made it one of the more culturally distinctive corners of the Republican zone during the Civil War. Like hundreds of Catalan and Aragonese councils in 1936–37, the Consell Municipal issued its own fractional emergency currency after metallic coin vanished almost entirely from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply gone.

Imprenta Josep Güell in La Pobla de Segur was a small provincial press that produced emergency notes for several local authorities in the Pallars Jussà and surrounding areas. The official stamp is the only security measure — essentially a council seal applied post-printing to authorize individual pieces.
