Kibbutz scrip of this type functioned as internal currency within individual agricultural communes during the British Mandate period and into the early Israeli statehood years, when access to official currency was often irregular. Mishmar Hanegev, founded in 1946 in the northern Negev, was among the communities that issued fractional notes to manage canteen and store transactions among members who received little or no cash wages under the communal labor model.
These pieces were never intended to leave the kibbutz. Survivorship is largely accidental — tucked into books, kept as novelties — which makes condition an unreliable indicator of scarcity.
