| Comments |
One of hundreds of emergency fractional notes issued by Catalan agricultural cooperatives and municipal bodies during the Civil War, when the Republican government's inability to maintain small-denomination coinage in circulation forced local institutions to print their own. The Sindicat Agrícola Cooperatiu de Ferran del Penedès — a wine-country cooperative in the Alt Penedès — produced this 1 peseta piece on thick card stock, a practical choice that gave small-format issues enough rigidity to survive handling at the counter.
Catalogued under Gari Mon #641-B, suggesting at least one variant exists within the series.
