Noalejo is a small municipality in Jaén province, Andalusia — hardly a financial institution by any definition, yet its municipal council issued emergency paper fractional currency during the Spanish Civil War, as did hundreds of similarly sized towns across the Republican zone when the Nationalist blockade caused a catastrophic shortage of small coinage. These local emissions, collectively documented by Gari and others under the broader *guerra civil* cartonnage catalogues, were often printed on whatever card stock was at hand, signed by local officials, and circulated within the immediate town limits only.
The Gari Mon#1002-E reference places this squarely within the documented Jaén provincial emissions, though surviving examples from villages of this size are genuinely uncommon — small towns issued small quantities, and few bothered to preserve them after the war ended.
