With copper, nickel, and other metals used up by the war effort, stamps were used as currency. For ease of use, these were affixed to cardboard discs, emblazoned with the Republican coat of arms, which banks gave out for free. This round piece of paper currency, produced in Barcelona in 1938, is one of the last issues of the Spanish Republic. When Barcelona fell in 1939, so did the antifascists. Franco assumed control of the country and ruled as a strongman until his death in 1975.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\/grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e (VF)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhoto notice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Representative stock photos may be used.
