| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in dark olive-green letterpress on light blue card stock, the obverse carries a large numeral '25' to the left, with the issuing authority legend arranged in three lines to the right. A short horizontal rule separates 'de' from 'BENIMANTELL', and a double rule underscores 'céntimos' at the lower right. The typography is plain and utilitarian, consistent with wartime emergency production. |

Benimantell is a village in the Vall de Guadalest, Alicante, with a population that barely exceeded 300 during the Civil War years. Like hundreds of Valencian municipalities in the Republican zone, its council issued emergency fractional currency in 1937 after the hoarding of silver and copper coins created an acute shortage of small change — a problem the Republican government in Madrid never adequately solved from the center, leaving it to individual ayuntamientos to paper over the gap.
The official stamp is the sole security measure, which was entirely typical for village-level emergency scrip of this kind. Counterfeit risk was low; the notes were worthless beyond the issuing municipality's boundaries.
