| Obverse description | Typeset letterpress note printed in red within a double-rule rectangular border. The upper-left corner carries the emblem of the Regional Defence Council of Aragon, while the upper-right bears a vignette of clasped hands accompanied by agricultural motifs, both serving as ideological emblems of the anarcho-collectivist issuer. All text is arranged in a utilitarian layout across multiple lines, consistent with wartime emergency local currency production. |

| Comments |
Colectividad Nueva Aurora was one of the anarchist agricultural collectives established in Aragón during the Spanish Civil War, issuing its own local currency after conventional money largely ceased to function in the region's collectivized villages. These community-issued vouchers — bonos — circulated internally as a substitute for Republican pesetas, acceptable only within the collective's own economy for goods and services controlled by the community.
Molinos is a small municipality in Teruel province. The collective's notes were rendered void when Francoist forces swept through Aragón in 1938, and few survived outside the village.
