Reverse description A stylized chess queen piece rendered in a bold, simplified form occupies the central field of the square flan. The design depicts the distinctive crown-shaped top of the queen, with a broad trapezoidal base below, presented in low relief against a plain field. The minimalist, modernist composition is characteristic of this Andorran chess-themed collector series.

Additional information

Andorra's first domestic coinage series arrived only in 1982 — the principality had relied on French and Spanish currencies in parallel circulation for centuries under its unique co-princeship arrangement. The 2006 nickel diner belongs to a series designed primarily for collector sale rather than everyday commerce; Andorra's official adoption of the euro in 2011 formalized what was already practical reality on the street.
