Purchena is a small municipality in Almería province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency paper scrip when coinage effectively vanished from circulation in 1936–37. The Republican zone suffered acute small-change shortages as silver and copper were hoarded or requisitioned, forcing ayuntamientos and consejos down to village level to print their own fractional currency — often on whatever card stock was at hand.
The thick substrate here was a practical choice, not an aesthetic one. Thin paper wore out fast in daily market use, and many Almería-region issues were already degrading within months of issue.
