| Beschrijving keerzijde | Blue letterpress composition centred on a vignette incorporating a caduceus, winged helmet, books, and a writing pen — symbols of commerce and trade. The denomination and issuing details are set in bold typeset lettering, with the U.G.T. union affiliation noted in the lower field. The design retains the same blue colour scheme as the obverse, consistent with the single-colour production typical of these wartime local issues. |

Benisa is a small coastal town in Alicante province, and like dozens of Valencian municipalities during the Civil War, its local trade union — here the UGT commerce and office workers' syndicate — issued its own emergency fractional currency when Republican Spain's coinage supply collapsed entirely. These hyper-local notes functioned on pure social trust: accepted by shopkeepers who answered to the same syndicate, worthless two streets outside town.
The Gari Monet catalogue documents hundreds of such issues, and the Benisa UGT notes are among the less commonly encountered ones, reflecting the syndicate's limited membership base rather than any dramatic wartime event.
