25 Céntimos Criptana

Campo de Criptana is a small Castilian municipality in Ciudad Real province, best known outside Spain as one of the villages associated with Don Quixote's windmills. During the Civil War, hundreds of Spanish towns and municipalities issued their own emergency fractional scrip — cédulas de vecindad or emergency tokens — to address the near-total disappearance of small coinage from circulation after 1936. Republican-controlled local councils became de facto issuers by necessity, not by any formal monetary authority.

The Garicoin reference is incomplete, which is typical for the smaller Castilian municipal emissions; many remain poorly documented because surviving examples are genuinely rare.
