Castalla is a small town in the Alicante province, and like hundreds of Spanish municipalities during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency paper scrip when the Republican government's coin supply collapsed under wartime hoarding and metal requisitioning. These consejo municipal notes were purely local instruments — legally valid only within the issuing township, and often printed on whatever stock was available.
The Gari Monetary catalog designation places this within a well-documented but enormous body of Guerra Civil local issues; 467-B implies at least one variant exists, likely differing in signature, stamp color, or paper batch.
