50 Céntimos Montaverner

Montaverner is a small municipality in the comarca of La Vall d'Albaida, Valencia. Like dozens of similarly sized Republican towns during the Civil War, it issued its own emergency fractional currency in 1937 after silver and copper coinage disappeared from circulation almost entirely — hoarded, melted, or simply absent. The Consejo Municipal, the revolutionary local council structure that replaced conventional ayuntamientos in Republican territory, was the formal issuing authority, though in practice these notes were produced and managed at the most local level imaginable.

The Turró and Gari references confirm this as a catalogued type, but survivorship is inherently low for material of this kind — small print runs, rough handling, and no institutional interest in preservation.
