1 Peseta Abarán

Abarán is a small municipality in Murcia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency when coins vanished from circulation almost entirely after 1936. The Republican government formally authorized local bodies to print these emergency notes — known as *billetes de necesidad* — but oversight was minimal, and quality varied wildly from one municipality to the next.

The Gari Mon#3-B reference distinguishes this from at least two other Abarán issues in the same denomination, implying variant printings or paper stocks within a single year's production run.
