Ondara is a small municipality in the Marina Alta comarca of Valencia, and like hundreds of similar towns, it issued its own emergency fractional currency during the Civil War after the Republic's coinage supply collapsed. These local wartime notes — known collectively as paper moneda local — were produced under Republican authority from 1936 onward, with quality and longevity varying wildly by municipality. Ondara's issue is catalogued but genuinely scarce; small-town runs were typically short and saw hard use before being rendered worthless.
The Gari Mon reference places this firmly within the documented Valencian municipal issues, though surviving examples in any condition are infrequently traded.
