Additional information

Andorra's diner-denominated coinage occupies a strange corner of numismatic history — issued by a co-principality governed jointly by the Bishop of Urgell and the President of France, neither of whom uses the diner domestically. The series was produced almost entirely for the collector market, with no meaningful circulation, making the choice of a religious subject entirely consistent with the ecclesiastical half of Andorra's dual sovereignty.
