| Comments |
Dólar is a small municipality in Granada province, and its wartime municipal council — like hundreds of others across Republican Spain — issued emergency fractional currency when coins vanished from circulation after July 1936. The Consejo Municipal series from this village is among the more obscure local emissions: Gari Mon lists it without a complete catalogue number, suggesting surviving documentation is thin.
Papelería Lacoste in Almería handled printing for several small councils in the region, which is one reason these notes can be confused at a glance. The Dólar emission is distinguished by its issuing authority text — the only reliable identifier when the printing stock was shared.
