Moreda de Aller is a mining municipality in Asturias, and like dozens of similar councils across Republican-held Spain in 1937, it issued fractional paper currency to address an acute shortage of metallic small change — silver and copper had largely vanished from circulation by mid-war. These municipal emergency issues, collectively catalogued under the Spanish Civil War cartography of local money, were typically produced with minimal printing infrastructure: some were little more than rubber-stamped cardboard. The Gari Mon reference for this note is incomplete, which is not unusual for Asturian council issues with very limited surviving populations.
