Pick 147 is the 25 Pesetas note issued under the Franco regime, a period when the FNMT held an effective monopoly on Spanish banknote production. This particular listing is catalogued as a replica — meaning it is a later facsimile reproduction, not a circulated original. Replicas of this series were officially produced for educational and archival purposes, and some surfaced through philatelic distribution channels in Spain during the 1970s and 1980s.
Collector value attaches to confirmed provenance of the replica's origin, not the note itself.
