Adra is a small coastal municipality in Almería province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns, it resorted to printing its own fractional emergency notes during the Civil War when Republican-zone coinage effectively vanished from circulation after 1936. The Republican government's monetary disorganization left local councils scrambling to produce their own low-denomination substitutes — some typeset, some rubber-stamped, some barely distinguishable from receipts.
The Gari Monicó catalog documents this as type 10-A, implying at least one variant exists. At 59 × 41 mm, this is among the smallest paper money issued in Spain.
