Comments

Rubielos de Mora is a small hill town in Teruel, Aragon, and like hundreds of Spanish municipalities during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional emergency notes when coin disappeared from circulation after 1936. The Comité de Abastecimiento — a supply committee, not a bank — had no printing infrastructure of its own; these notes were typically produced locally on whatever press and paper stock was available, which accounts for the wide variation in quality seen across surviving examples from comparable village issues.

The Gari Montaner reference number is unassigned, suggesting either late documentation or very limited surviving specimens known at the time of cataloging.
