| Comments |
Pacheco is a small municipality in the Murcia region, and like hundreds of Spanish towns during the Civil War, its local authority issued emergency fractional currency when coins vanished from circulation almost overnight in 1936. The Conserjería de Abastecimientos — essentially a local supply committee — had no printing infrastructure, so these notes were produced by whatever means were available locally, typically letterpress or simple lithography, with quality varying dramatically even within the same series.
Gari Mon catalogues this as a genuinely scarce municipal emission. Provincial Spanish Civil War issues at this denominational level were often printed in very small runs and used hard within the community before disappearing entirely.
