50 Céntimos Bedmar

Bedmar is a small municipality in the province of Jaén, Andalusia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency fractional currency when coin disappeared almost entirely from circulation after 1936. These municipal notes — often printed on whatever card or heavy paper was available locally — filled the gap left by the Republican government's inability to supply small change across fragmented territory.

Provincial and village-level issues from this period vary enormously in printing quality and surviving quantities, with many destroyed or lost during the post-war Francoist consolidation. Bedmar's issues remain among the more obscure Jaén examples.
