Pick 94 is a Republican-era emergency issue from the early months of the Spanish Civil War, when the Nationalist advance had disrupted normal monetary supply chains and the government in Madrid needed small-denomination notes quickly. The FNMT, Spain's own state security printer, was still under Republican control at this point — a fact that would change within two years.
The word "replica" in the catalog name reflects the note's deliberate visual echo of earlier Banco de España small-format issues, not a modern reproduction. These circulated as genuine currency.
