1 Peseta Angüés

Angüés is a small village in the Hoya de Huesca comarca of Aragon, and like dozens of similarly isolated communities during the Spanish Civil War, it resolved its small-change shortage by printing its own emergency scrip. The issuer — a collective joining agricultural workers with various other local trades — reflects the anarcho-syndicalist organizational structure that took hold across rural Aragon after the July 1936 uprising. These village collectives operated outside the Republican monetary system proper, and their scrip was valid only within the issuing community.

Survival rates for these hyper-local emissions are unpredictable. Some villages printed hundreds; others, thousands. Angüés was never large enough to generate significant quantities of anything.
