Comments

Nogueruelas is a small municipality in the Gúdar-Javalambre comarca of Teruel, Aragon — remote enough that during the Spanish Civil War, local councils across Republican-held territory were forced to print their own emergency small-change notes when coinage disappeared from circulation almost entirely. These municipally issued pieces, collectively known as "billetes de necesidad" or emergency currency, filled the vacuum left by a collapsed national supply chain and a government too overstretched to provision every village in the zone.

The Gari catalogue entry remains unassigned, suggesting this piece either lacks confirmed documentation or surfaced too late for full classification. Thick card stock construction is typical of local print runs where proper banknote paper was unavailable.
