1937 Spain 1 Peseta VG – Spanish Republic Provisional Issue | Civil War Emergency Money

CA$12.00

1937 Spain 1 Peseta note is a provisional emergency issue released by the República Española (Spanish Republic) during the Spanish Civil War. Issued under the Ministerio de Hacienda, this note is classified as a “Certificado Provisional de Moneda Divisionaria”, created to address severe coin shortages during wartime.

The obverse features a classical allegorical figure alongside bold republican typography and official seals, with “Emisión 1937” clearly printed. The reverse displays a symbolic classical scene with a chariot and lions, rendered in muted blue and yellow tones on low-quality wartime paper—characteristic of emergency Spanish Civil War issues.

Highly collectible due to its historical significance, fragile paper stock, and direct association with one of Europe’s most pivotal 20th-century conflicts.
