| Additional information |
Andorra began issuing its own euro coinage only in 2014, following a monetary agreement with the European Union signed in June 2011 — decades after the principality had been using French francs and Spanish pesetas, then euros, without any formal right to mint. This particular issue commemorates the country's 1993 constitution, which transformed Andorra from a feudal co-principality under joint French and Episcopal suzerainty into a parliamentary democracy with codified civil rights for the first time in its 700-year history.
