Venta del Moro is a small municipality in the province of Valencia, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local council issued emergency fractional currency when Republican-zone coinage evaporated almost entirely from circulation in 1936–37. These Consejo Municipal pieces — often produced by whatever local printer or even hand-stamp was available — were purely internal instruments, rarely accepted beyond the issuing township's market.
The Turró reference places this among the documented Valencian provincial series, but survival rates for village-level Spanish Civil War paper are notoriously uneven. Many were redeemed locally or simply discarded once the war's economic disruption made them irrelevant.
