Ontiñena is a small agricultural municipality in Huesca province, Aragon — population well under a thousand even today. During the Civil War, the Republican zone experienced a catastrophic shortage of fractional coin, partly because hoarding stripped copper and silver from circulation almost immediately after July 1936. Hundreds of Aragonese municipalities responded by issuing their own emergency paper, and Ontiñena was among them. These consejo municipal issues were technically illegal under the Republic's own monetary regulations, but the central government tolerated them as a practical necessity.
Survival rates for such hyper-local wartime issues are low. Many were redeemed and pulped before Nationalist forces arrived, or simply lost when the issuing bodies dissolved.
