25 Centimos Cabrera de Mataró; Societat L'Aurora

During the Spanish Civil War, hundreds of Catalan municipalities and local organizations issued their own emergency fractional currency after the Republican government's coin supply collapsed almost immediately following the July 1936 uprising. Societat L'Aurora was a recreational and mutual aid society — the kind of working-class cultural association common throughout Catalonia — and its notes circulated as functional small change within Cabrera de Mataró, a coastal town north of Barcelona.

The Allepuz catalog reference (AL#323) places this among the smaller, harder-to-document local emissions. Survival rates for these thick-card village issues vary enormously; many were redeemed and pulped when the Nationalist forces consolidated control of the region in early 1939.
