Baza issued emergency fractional paper during the Spanish Civil War, one of hundreds of Andalusian municipalities that printed their own small-denomination scrip after the Republic's metallic coinage disappeared from circulation in 1936. These local emissions were authorized under Republican decree but executed entirely at the municipal level, which means production quality and surviving quantities vary wildly even within the same issuing town.
The Garrido Morón reference places this within the documented Baza series, though the C suffix indicates a specific type variant — likely a distinguishing detail in serial numbering, paper stock, or overprint rather than a distinct emission date.
