Reverse description The reverse depicts a partial frontal view of the Casa de la Vall, known as the Palau del Princep (Prince's Palace), rendered in fine architectural detail showing the roofline, facade, a small window, a columned doorway with balustrade, and the Andorran national coat of arms affixed to the exterior wall. The building is presented centrally within the coin's field, cropped to suggest monumental scale. Surrounding the architectural motif is a border of twelve five-pointed stars arranged in a circle, evoking the European aesthetic. The legend 'PALAU DEL PRINCEP' is inscribed along the upper left periphery within the star border.
