Opmerkingen	Boltaña is a small municipality in the Aragonese Pyrenees, and this 2 pesetas note belongs to the extraordinary proliferation of locally-issued emergency scrip that swept across Republican-held Spain during the Civil War. When the central government could no longer guarantee coin supply and hoarding stripped small denominations from daily commerce, hundreds of municipalities printed their own. Boltaña was among the smaller communities to do so — its issues are correspondingly scarce, produced in limited quantities for a limited catchment area. The official stamp served as the primary authentication mechanism, a practical necessity when printing infrastructure was rudimentary.
