Comments

Casasimarro is a small municipality in Cuenca province, Castilla-La Mancha, and like hundreds of Spanish towns it issued its own emergency fractional currency during the Civil War after the Republic's coinage supply collapsed in 1936–37. These local council notes — often typewritten, rubber-stamped, or crudely letterpress-printed on whatever paper was at hand — were never intended to outlast the emergency. Most circulated hard within a few kilometers and were redeemed or simply discarded when central supply resumed.

The Gari Morera reference number is unassigned, which typically indicates a specimen known from very few examples, possibly a single survivor recorded after the main cataloguing work was completed.
