Obverse description Central vignette of an allegorical female figure representing the Republic, seated on a throne and holding a torch, flanked by a lion and the Spanish coat of arms. Issuing authority text and denomination legend are rendered in letterpress around the central design, with the lower portion citing the municipal agreement of 27 July 1937 that authorized the emission. The overall layout is characteristic of Spanish Civil War-era municipal emergency issues.

(Translation: The Municipal Council of Caravaca Will pay the bearer Twenty-five Centimos (According to agreement of July 27, 1937))
Reverse description Printed in blue, the reverse is composed entirely of interlocking guilloche rosettes and geometric lathe-work panels arranged symmetrically around a central oval cartouche reserved for the serial number. A curved inscription reading 'REPÚBLICA ESPAÑOLA' arcs across the top, while 'CONSEJO MUNICIPAL - CARAVACA' runs along the lower arc, framing the central medallion. The design relies exclusively on ornamental geometric patterning with no figurative vignette.
