50 Grados Binéfar

Binéfar, a small agricultural town in Aragon, fell under anarchist collectivization almost immediately after the July 1936 military uprising. The Comunidad de Trabajadores — organized under the CNT-FAI — abolished money in principle while simultaneously issuing local scrip to manage exchange within the collective. The paradox was real and widely acknowledged at the time.

The denomination "grados" — degrees — reflects the collectivist accounting theory then current in libertarian circles, where labor time or productive units replaced peseta values. Binéfar was among the more systematic practitioners of this approach in the Huesca province.

Gari Mon#335-H places this within a documented series, though survival rates for Aragonese collective scrip are low; most was demonetized forcibly after Franco's forces and communist-aligned units dismantled the collectives in 1937.
