1 Peseta Benisa

Benisa is a small coastal municipality in Alicante province, and this note was issued not by any municipal authority but by a trade union — the Sindicato de Trabajadores de Comercio y Oficinas, affiliated with the UGT. During the Spanish Civil War, the collapse of small-denomination coinage in Republican territory prompted hundreds of local bodies, including unions, cooperatives, and town councils, to produce their own emergency paper. The UGT sindicatos were among the more unusual issuers: a labor organization functioning as a de facto monetary authority for local retail transactions.

Benisa's issues are genuinely scarce. The town's small size meant low print runs, and most emergency local paper from this region was demonetized and pulped after the Nationalist victory in 1939.
