Alcudia de Veo is a small municipality in the Castellón province of Valencia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional emergency currency in 1937 when coins effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply unavailable. These municipal notes were a purely local solution to a national problem: the Republican government had authorized the practice but could not supply the coinage itself.
The Gari Montllor reference being incomplete signals how thinly documented this particular emission remains. Many issues from villages of this size survive in single-digit quantities, if at all.
