| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central device depicts a pair of figure skaters in dynamic performance: a male skater, shown in a low crouching position on the ice, supports his female partner who extends gracefully outward in a split attitude with her arms raised. The Olympic five-ring symbol appears to the right of the figures in the mid-field. The curved legend arcs around the upper periphery, while the host city name 'ALBERTVILLE' and the Olympic year '1992' are inscribed across the lower field and exergue respectively. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andorra began issuing commemorative coinage in the early 1980s largely as a revenue mechanism — the principality has no central bank and its coins hold no legal tender status in daily commerce. The 1988 Winter Olympics series gave the Co-Princes' government a marketable hook for collector sales abroad, and Joan Martí i Alanis, the Episcopal Co-Prince from 1971 to 2003, lent his name to the issue as the ecclesiastical authority under whose purview these coins were authorized.
Calgary hosted the XVI Winter Games — the same Olympics that introduced the world to Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards and the Jamaican bobsled team.
