1 Peseta Palma de Gandía

Palma de Gandía is a small municipality in Valencia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency when coins disappeared entirely from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply absent. These consejería-issued notes were strictly local instruments, accepted nowhere outside the issuing town and often redeemable only while the Republican administration remained in control.

The issuing body — the Municipal Supply Council — tells you something specific: this wasn't a general ayuntamiento issue but one tied directly to the rationing and supply apparatus. That distinction matters when dating and contextualizing these notes, as many Valencian municipalities issued through multiple bodies simultaneously in 1936–1937.
