Sástago is a small municipality on the Ebro in Aragon, and this note is a product of the fractured wartime economy that forced hundreds of Spanish towns to print their own emergency small change when Republican-zone coinage effectively disappeared from circulation after 1936. The Consejo Municipal — the local governing council operating under Republican authority — had no formal banking infrastructure behind it. The note's legitimacy rested entirely on the council's local authority and the official stamp applied at issue.
Gari Mon#1337-B suggests a catalogued variant, likely distinguished by stamp color, text placement, or a minor printing difference from the primary type.
