0.25 Pesetas Albaladejo

During the Spanish Civil War, hundreds of municipalities across Republican-held territory issued their own emergency fractional currency when metal coinage disappeared from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply lost in the chaos of wartime supply collapse. Albaladejo, a small town in the province of Ciudad Real in Castilla-La Mancha, was among them. These local council notes, generically called "billetes de necesidad," were produced under no standardized authority and with whatever printing resources the municipality could access.

The Garrido Monerón reference gap signals this piece is either unrecorded or poorly documented in the specialist literature — which for a quarter-peseta from a minor Manchegan council is entirely plausible.
