1 Peseta Villamayor de Calatrava

Villamayor de Calatrava is a small municipality in the Campo de Calatrava district of Ciudad Real province. Like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional emergency currency — "billetes de necesidad" — to address the acute shortage of small-denomination coinage that followed the breakdown of normal monetary supply after July 1936. These locally produced notes were authorised under Republican government decree but executed entirely at the municipal level, often printed by whatever press happened to be available in the comarca.

The Gari Monetary catalogue reference is incomplete for this piece, suggesting it remains poorly documented — possibly from a very small print run that left few survivors.
