Puebla de Farnals is a small coastal municipality north of Valencia, and like hundreds of other Republican-held towns during the Civil War, its local council was forced into issuing fractional emergency currency after metallic coin disappeared from circulation almost entirely by mid-1937. The Consejo Municipal had no in-house printing capacity, so the work went to Tipografía M. Zamit in the nearby town of Meliana — a practical choice given wartime transport constraints, but one that made local authentication essential. Hence the official stamp, which served as the primary guarantee of legitimacy rather than any sophisticated printing security.
