1 Peseta Montillana

Montillana is a small municipality in Granada province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency fractional currency when coinage disappeared from circulation almost entirely after 1936. These consejo municipal notes were a local fix to a national problem — the Republic had lost control of small-denomination metal, and villages were left to improvise. Gari's catalog documents enormous variation in quality and authority across these emissions, and Montillana's is among the more obscure entries.

The sole security measure is an official stamp — commonplace for the series, but the specific stamp type distinguishes genuine issues from later imitations.
