| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large light green typographic design bearing the word "PESETA" in bold block letters spanning the width of the note, with the numeral "1" printed in black within a white circle at the left, forming a strong graphic face-value motif. A serial number is printed in black in the lower centre. The overall composition is stark and utilitarian, consistent with wartime emergency issue printing. |

Jatiel is a village in the province of Teruel, Aragón, with a population that barely exceeded a few hundred during the 1930s. Like dozens of similarly small Republican-held municipalities, its council issued emergency small-denomination paper during the Spanish Civil War to compensate for the near-total disappearance of metallic coinage from circulation — silver and copper hoarded or melted almost immediately after July 1936.
The Garicó-Montobbio catalog reference places this among the rarer Aragonese local issues, where survival rates are low and documentation of original print runs essentially nonexistent.
