Dalías is a small municipality in Almería province, and this peseta is one of hundreds of locally issued emergency notes that proliferated across Republican-held Spain after the July 1936 military uprising severed normal coin supply chains. With silver and copper hoarded or requisitioned, town councils were authorized — and in practice often simply compelled by necessity — to print their own fractional currency. The Consejo Municipal issues from villages this size were typically produced in very small runs on whatever printing resources were locally available.
Gari Mon#587-C places this within the well-documented Almería provincial grouping, though surviving examples from minor Andalusian municipalities remain genuinely scarce relative to larger urban issues.
