25 Céntimos Torreperogil

Torreperogil is a small olive-growing municipality in Jaén province, and like hundreds of other Spanish towns it issued its own fractional emergency currency in the summer of 1936 when the Civil War's outbreak caused coins to vanish almost overnight — hoarded by a nervous public, melted, or simply disrupted by collapsed supply chains. The Consejo Municipal, effectively the local republican governing body at that point, authorized these notes as a stopgap for daily commerce.

Production was purely local — almost certainly a job printer in town, or the municipality's own administrative press. The official stamp was the primary anti-counterfeiting measure, which tells you everything about the resources available.
