| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a full-color reproduction of Sandro Botticelli's allegorical painting 'Fortitudo' (Courage), depicting a seated female figure robed in flowing red and grey drapery, holding a lance and a shield, enthroned against an architectural backdrop. The color image is framed by two Herculean male caryatid columns in high relief rendered in antiqued silver, surmounted by an ornate arched pediment featuring scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and a decorative urn finial at the apex. The overall composition emulates a Renaissance altarpiece or triptych format. The legend FORTITUDO is inscribed in the lower panel of the frame beneath the central image. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andorra's coinage authority issued a prolonged series of themed silver pieces in the early 2010s tied to classical virtues, of which this is one. The principality's unusual status — co-ruled by the Bishop of Urgell and the President of France, a feudal arrangement dating to a 1278 paréage — means its numismatic program operates outside the Eurozone framework despite the country using the euro as its de facto currency. Andorra struck no official coinage of its own until 1982, making the entire modern series relatively young by any standard.
