Molinos is a small village in the Maestrazgo region of Teruel — during the Spanish Civil War, the Republican zone experienced a near-total collapse of small change, and hundreds of municipal councils across Aragon issued their own emergency paper fractional currency to keep local commerce moving. The Consejo Municipal de Molinos was one of these, functioning under the authority of the Aragón Regional Council, itself dissolved by force in August 1937 after conflict with the CNT-controlled collectives.
La Tipográfica of Caspe printed for several small Aragonese municipalities during this brief window. The Gari Montserrat reference number being unassigned suggests this piece remains insufficiently documented in the specialist literature.
