Spain Postal Currency (Id: 1934 Spanish Stamp-Coin)

The stamp was printed by Spain in 1934 and it features Concepcion' Arenal. Concepción Arenal Ponte, of the 19th century, was a Spanish feminist writer and activist. Born in Ferrol, Galicia, she excelled in literature and was the first woman to attend university in Spain. She was also a pioneer and founder of the feminist movement in Spain. It is Scott #547.

The stamp worth about $1.00 or $2.00 with light cancellation or unused. I don't think Spain issued postal currency in the 1930's so this is a fantasy piece. Could have been distributed to volunteers at a pro woman convention or meeting.

Well, that's interesting to learn it is emergency currency instead. I wonder if the Pick banknote catalogue lists other denominated stamps than just the .15

I have no problems with Numista for the moment

I only have a 1986 edition of the Pick catalogue, so I don't know what the current editions have, but in mine, the basic type is listed as Pick #96, with different stamps given a different suffix. This one, with the 15 centimos "portrait" Postage Stamp, is listed as number 96H.

There's a note in the Pick catalogue, stating that the Republic government passed two decrees authorising these stamp-coins, but the only types mentioned in the decrees are 5, 10 and 25 centimos in the Postage Stamp series, and 10 and 15 centimos Revenue Stamps; other denominations "must be considered unofficial" but are listed alongside the "official" issues in the catalogue.
