50 FARINETS local money

50 Farinets - Local currency created in the region of Valais in the middle of the Swiss Alps.

The design is always with an animal of the region on one side and the must known mountains on the other side.
The higher the value of the note is, the higher the mountain is.

Here we can see an ibex, a protected king in Valais. It's symbolize wisdom and tranquility. Above the ibex there is the famous Aletsch Glacier for it's preciousness in Switzerland is threaten by climate change. On the montain side we can see the Bietschhorn, also known as "the king of Valais" for being visible almost from everywhere in the canton. It culminate at 3934m as shows the map above the illustration

this local currency needs help since the persons who are taking care of it hope for people reinforcement.
The entire movement of this local currency is pretty much misunderstood by the people of the region who prefer pay by contactless cards and basically pay by any numeric devices.
Probably because we are living in a world where financial transactions are pretty well installed and it's difficult for any alternatives to find it's way through what's already efficient.
It's a bit of a shame because the purpose of a local currency is to make the people ask themself "what is like to have confidence into a note, what does it represent and where the money goes for what benefits at which price" At Ademus our role has been to release the design but not only, it matches with our sense of questioning existing purposes.
Obviously as the creators of those visuals, we are hopping it will continue to be spent in Valais
