| Additional information |
Joan Martí i Alanis served as Bishop of Urgell — and therefore Co-Prince of Andorra — from 1971 until his death in 2003, making his 25-year jubilee in 1996 a genuine constitutional milestone for the principality. Andorra's peculiar dual co-princeship, shared between the Bishop of Urgell and the President of France, dates to a 1278 paréage agreement that has never been formally dissolved.
Andorra began issuing collector coinage only in 1983, giving this series a short history relative to most European sovereign issues.
