25 Céntimos Bedmar

Bedmar is a small municipality in the province of Jaén, Andalusia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns it resorted to locally issued emergency fractional notes during the Civil War when Republican-zone copper and silver coins vanished almost entirely from circulation by 1936–37. The Consejo Municipal — the local council operating under wartime Republican authority — produced these low-denomination pieces to keep retail trade functioning at all.

The thick card construction was typical of municipalities that lacked access to proper banknote paper; the material was whatever the local printer could source. Gari Mon catalogues this as 247-A, implying at least one variant exists within the Bedmar issue — likely a color or paper distinction, though surviving examples are rare enough that comparative study is difficult.
