Vinalesa is a small municipality in the Valencian Community, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local authority issued emergency small change — *moneda local* — to compensate for the near-total disappearance of metal coinage from circulation after 1936. The Economato Popular, a collective supply cooperative rather than a municipal body, was the issuing authority here, which places this note within the cooperative and anarchist-influenced economic networks active in the Republican zone of Valencia.
The Turró and Gari catalogues both document this type, though surviving examples are scarce enough that condition variance between recorded specimens is notable.
