25 Centimos Guíxols; Vinaters

Sant Feliu de Guíxols, a small coastal town in Girona province, was among hundreds of Catalan municipalities that issued fractional paper currency during the Spanish Civil War after the collapse of conventional coin circulation in 1936. These local emergency issues — collectively catalogued under the Altus system — were produced by businesses, trade unions, cooperatives, and municipal committees, often with minimal printing resources. The Vinaters, or wine trade establishments, issued this 25 céntimos note to keep small transactions moving when the Republic's coinage had effectively vanished from daily commerce.

At 64 x 40 mm, notes of this type were frequently lost, torn, or simply discarded once the war ended and Republican currency became worthless. Survival rates for commercial-sector issues from smaller Catalan towns are notoriously low.
