25 Céntimos Gérgal

Gérgal is a small municipality in Almería province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns, it issued its own emergency fractional currency during the Civil War after the Republic's central authorities failed to keep small-denomination coinage in circulation. These local emissions — collectively catalogued under the broader "Guerra Civil" series — were often produced with whatever printing resources existed locally: a town council stamp, a simple press, sometimes little more than a rubber block on card stock.

The Gari Mon reference places this firmly within that documented typology. The thickness of the substrate was practical, not decorative — thin paper issues from this period degraded rapidly in daily use.
