Benimantell is a village in the Alicante province with a population that barely reached a few hundred in the 1930s — which makes this 25 céntimos note an unusually minor issuer even by the chaotic standards of Republican Spain's wartime small-change crisis. From 1936 onward, the disappearance of metal coinage from circulation prompted hundreds of municipalities, cooperatives, and local councils to print their own emergency fractional currency, a phenomenon documented exhaustively in Gari's catalog. Most of these issuers were small; Benimantell was among the smallest.
Survival rates for village-level Valencian emergency notes vary enormously, and print runs for councils this size were typically in the low hundreds.
