Dehesas Viejas is a small municipality in Granada province, and like dozens of similarly sized Andalusian villages during the Civil War, its Popular Front committee resorted to issuing its own emergency fractional currency when Republican pesetas and centimos simply dried up in local circulation after 1936. These hyper-local emissions were produced without any central authorization — improvised, often hand-stamped, and printed in tiny quantities by whatever means were locally available.
The Gari Montserrat reference remaining incomplete signals how poorly documented this specific emission remains. Many comparable village notes survive in single-digit quantities.
