| Obverse description | A postage stamp — issued in either blue or orange — affixed to a round cardboard disc, bearing the forward-facing effigy of Spanish statesman and politician Nicolás Salmerón y Alonso at centre. The stamp carries the legend REPÚBLICA ESPAÑOLA and NICOLAS SALMERON with the denomination 50 CTS, along with the issuing authority inscription CORREOS and FCA. NAL. DE MONEDA Y TIMBRE. The design reflects the Republican wartime emergency coinage practice of mounting existing postage stamps onto cardboard flans for use as small-change currency. |
