Casasimarro is a small municipality in Cuenca province, Castilla-La Mancha, and like hundreds of Spanish towns it resorted to issuing its own emergency fractional currency during the Civil War after the Republic's small-denomination coinage effectively vanished from circulation by mid-1936. These local municipal issues — collectively catalogued under the broader emergency money literature — were produced under mayoral authority with whatever printing resources were locally available, often a job printer or even a rubber stamp on plain paper stock.
The Gari Montllor reference remains unassigned, suggesting the note has not been fully catalogued or verified against the standard corpus of Spanish Civil War local issues.
