Comment
Local Spanish Civil War coins: Created by municipalities, cooperatives, unions and other organizations due to the scarcity of fiduciary currency in small purchases and exchanges during the Spanish Civil War.
Municipality: Benetúser - Province: Valencia - Autonomous community: Valencian Community
NOTE: Face value written on coin (0.25 Centimos) is a mistake, since it should have been 0.25 Pesetas or 25 Centimos.
Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it is made of cardboard, which is a unique and eco-friendly material for a coin.

This makes it a distinctive and environmentally conscious option for a coin.
