Additional information

Andorra's silver issues of this period were produced under a licensing arrangement that allowed the co-principality — which has no mint of its own — to commission foreign facilities for collector coinage. The pad printing technique applied here, a process borrowed from industrial manufacturing, deposits ink directly onto the coin surface in precise multicolor layers without the raised relief of traditional enameling.

KM#549 belongs to a recurring Andorran series drawing on Western European devotional art. Pad-printed coins from this era have shown variable long-term ink adhesion depending on storage conditions — a practical concern for registry submissions.
