1 Peseta Puertollano

Puertollano, a mining town in Ciudad Real province, was among the hundreds of Spanish municipalities that issued their own emergency fractional paper currency during the Civil War years of 1936–1939, when small-denomination coinage effectively vanished from circulation. These local issues — collectively known as billetes locales or moneda local de necesidad — were produced under Republican-controlled town halls with little standardization and no central oversight.

The absence of a confirmed Gari catalogue number suggests this piece remains incompletely documented, which is itself useful information: the Puertollano municipal issues are not comprehensively catalogued, and unregistered variants do surface.
