Comments

Iznalloz is a small municipality in Granada province, and like hundreds of Spanish towns it resorted to locally produced fractional paper during the Civil War when Republican-zone coinage all but vanished from circulation. These céntimos notes were a purely local fix — accepted at the shop counter, meaningless ten kilometers away. The official stamp was the only anti-counterfeiting measure available to a town hall with no printing infrastructure worth the name.

Gari Mon 785-A places this among the better-documented Granadan municipals, but surviving examples remain genuinely scarce given the chaos of 1936–39 and the near-total destruction of local administrative records afterward.
