10 Céntimos Alicante

Spanish Civil War municipal emergency money, issued when the Republican government's currency supply to the provinces had become unreliable and small-denomination coinage had effectively vanished from circulation through hoarding. Hundreds of Spanish towns and villages issued their own paper fractional currency during 1936–38; Alicante, as a significant Republican port city and one of the last major urban centers to fall — it held out until the final days of April 1939 — was among the more active local issuers.

The Gari Mon catalogue remains the primary reference for these Spanish Civil War local emissions, many of which survive in tiny quantities given their purely utilitarian, short-lived role.
