Castell de Ferro is a small coastal settlement in Granada province, and its municipal council issuing emergency fractional currency in 1937 places this squarely within the Republican wartime necessity-money phenomenon — the billetes de necesidad produced by hundreds of Spanish municipalities when the Civil War disrupted coin supply and the central government couldn't fill the gap fast enough. Papelería Lacoste in Almería printed for several smaller Andalusian councils during this period, functioning essentially as a local job printer pressed into monetary service.
The official stamp was the primary fraud deterrent — without it, the note had no legal standing within the issuing municipality's jurisdiction, which rarely extended beyond a few kilometers anyway.
