Beschrijving voorzijde The crowned coat of arms of Andorra is depicted to the left of the field, surmounted by a royal crown, displaying the quartered shield with the mitre and crozier of the Bishop of Urgell and the bars of Catalonia. To the right, a five-line legend in large upright lettering identifies the co-prince. The denomination '10 D.' appears prominently in the lower centre of the field, with the date '1993' inscribed below in the exergue area.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylized tree with a gnarled, naturalistic trunk and leafy canopy occupies the centre and right of the field, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. A large bird perches prominently among the upper branches, while multiple stylized birds in an interlaced, folk-art manner are arranged in flight around the base and left side of the trunk, conveying a sense of movement and harmony with nature. Large foliage leaves are depicted at the base of the tree. The curved legend 'PROTEGIM LA NATURA' arcs along the upper left periphery of the field in Gothic-style lettering.

Aanvullende informatie

Joan Martí i Alanis served as Bishop of Urgell from 1971 to 2003, and in that role acted as one of Andorra's two Co-Princes — a feudal arrangement dating to a 1278 paréage between the Bishop of Urgell and the Count of Foix. Andorra issued no coinage at all until 1982, when Martí i Alanis authorized the first official series largely for collector export rather than domestic circulation.

The 1993 nature protection issues were part of a broader push by small European states in the early 1990s to capture the thematic collector market ahead of eurozone consolidation.
