During the Spanish Civil War, small-denomination coinage vanished almost entirely from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply unavailable — forcing hundreds of municipalities to issue their own emergency paper scrip. Baeza, a small Andalusian town in Jaén province, was among them. These local emissions had no backing beyond the issuing municipality's word and were typically redeemable only within that community.
The Gari Monetary catalog remains the primary reference for these provincial Spanish Civil War cartones, and the -A suffix on this listing suggests at least one variety exists — likely a signature, color, or paper difference.
