25 Céntimos Albánchez

Albánchez is a small municipality in the Sierra de los Filabres range in Almería province. Like hundreds of Spanish villages during the Civil War, it issued its own fractional emergency scrip in 1937 when the Republic's small-change shortage became acute — copper and silver coins had been hoarded or melted, and the central government was too stretched to cover the gap. Local ayuntamientos filled it themselves, often printing runs so small that documentation is fragmentary.

The Gari Monetary catalogue remains the primary reference for these Spanish Civil War municipal emissions, and the 49-A designation suggests at least one variant exists within this denomination for Albánchez.
