Casas de Guijarro is a small municipality in Cuenca province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency fractional currency in 1937 when the Republic's centimos and small silver coinage had effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply absent. These municipal emergency emissions, known collectively as "moneda local," were authorised under Republican decree but executed entirely at local level, which is why print quality, paper stock, and surviving quantities vary so wildly from town to town.
The Garrido Morón reference gap signals how poorly documented this particular emission remains.
