Herrera de los Navarros is a small municipality in the province of Zaragoza, and like hundreds of other Aragonese villages during the Spanish Civil War, it issued its own local scrip when the Republican monetary system fragmented and small change effectively disappeared from circulation. These colectividad notes were produced under anarcho-syndicalist collective organization — the CNT and FAI controlled much of rural Aragon from mid-1936 — and were redeemable only within the issuing community's own economy.
The Gari Montaner reference gap signals this piece hasn't been fully catalogued, which is common for the smaller Aragonese emissions. Many were printed in tiny quantities on whatever paper was at hand and survived only by accident.
