Casasimarro is a small municipality in the province of Cuenca, Castilla-La Mancha. Like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War period, the local alcaldía issued emergency fractional paper to cover the acute coin shortage that followed the hoarding and disappearance of metallic currency from circulation after July 1936. The central Republican government never fully controlled this proliferation — by some estimates, over two thousand distinct local issuers were operating simultaneously across Republican-held territory.
The Gari Montañá reference gap signals this piece has not been fully catalogued in that census, which is not unusual for the smaller Conquense municipalities.
