| Comments |
Campotéjar is a small municipality in Granada province, and this note belongs to the broader phenomenon of Spanish Civil War emergency fractional currency — locally issued paper substitutes produced when Republican-zone towns found themselves stripped of coin by hoarding, melting, and the general collapse of small-change supply after July 1936. Municipal councils across Andalusia and beyond printed their own solutions, most in tiny quantities, many on whatever paper was available.
The incomplete Gari Mon reference signals how thinly documented this specific emission remains. Survivor populations for Campotéjar issues are presumably very small.
