Comments

Guarromán is a small municipality in the province of Jaén, Andalusia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns it resorted to locally issued emergency fractional notes — known broadly as *moneda local* or *papel moneda municipal* — during the coin shortage of 1936–1937 that accompanied the early months of the Civil War. The Republican-held interior of Spain was particularly affected, as silver and copper coinage disappeared from circulation almost immediately after the July 1936 uprising.

The Gari Mon reference is unassigned, which likely means surviving examples are either unrecorded in the main catalogue or were submitted too late for inclusion. Small-town Jaén emissions are among the least-documented in the series.
