1 Peseta Sisante

Sisante is a small municipality in Cuenca province, Castilla-La Mancha, and like hundreds of other Republican-controlled towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency when coins vanished from circulation almost entirely in 1936–37. Hoarding, melting, and requisitioning of metal coinage created a vacuum that the central government could not fill fast enough, so local councils — ayuntamientos and municipal juntas across the Republican zone — printed their own paper to keep markets functioning.

The Gari catalogue documents thousands of these local emissions. Most were produced in tiny print runs and redeemed locally, which means genuine circulated survivors are now harder to find than the rarer-looking central issues.
