| Opmerkingen |
Almadén's municipal council issued emergency fractional currency during the Spanish Civil War, as the collapse of the Republican monetary supply left small change almost entirely absent from circulation. These local notes — issued by ayuntamientos, casinos, trade unions, and cooperatives across Republican Spain — were technically illegal under central government regulations but tolerated out of necessity.
Almadén itself was strategically significant: its mercury mines, among the richest in the world, were a major Republican asset and a target of intense Nationalist pressure throughout the war. Whether that pressure disrupted the note's actual circulation life is unrecorded.
