| Comments |
Noguerones de Alcaudete is a small village in the municipality of Alcaudete, in the province of Jaén, Andalusia. During the Spanish Civil War, hundreds of small towns and villages across the Republican zone issued their own emergency paper money when metallic coinage disappeared from circulation almost entirely — hoarded, melted, or simply lost to the chaos of 1936 and after. These hyper-local emissions, often produced on whatever card stock or thick paper was at hand with a rubber stamp or a simple letterpress, fill the murkier corners of the Gari catalog and frequently lack assigned reference numbers entirely.
The absence of a Gari number here likely reflects a specimen known only from a single source or recorded after the main catalog was compiled.
