Aanvullende informatie

Andorra's sovereign coinage program has long served as a vehicle for themed collector series with no connection to Andorran history or culture — this piece being a clear example. The Aztec deity series was issued under Andorra's authority purely as a bullion-adjacent collector product, leveraging the country's issuing rights without any pretense of local relevance.

Xochiquetzal was the Aztec goddess of beauty, love, and weaving, associated with the quetzal bird and marigold flowers in pre-Columbian religious practice.
