| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a stylized group of figures with raised and joined arms, rendered in a modernist idiom evoking dancers performing the Sardana, the traditional Catalan circle dance. Beneath the figures, a stylized representation of the Catalan flag's vertical stripes serves as a decorative ground element. A partial ring of twelve five-pointed stars arcs along the lower and right periphery of the field, alluding to the European Community emblem. The denomination '25' appears to the left, with 'ECU' inscribed vertically below it. The legend 'CATALUNYA' curves along the upper rim. |

The ECU — European Currency Unit — was never legal tender in Catalonia or anywhere else; it was a basket currency used in EU accounting and exchange-rate mechanisms. That didn't stop regional governments and municipalities across Europe from issuing ECU-denominated medals and collector pieces throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, exploiting a legal grey area before the euro made the practice obsolete. The Generalitat's series used the format to assert a distinct Catalan cultural presence within the European project.
Josep Pla, the Empordà-born writer honored here, published the bulk of his work under Franco-era censorship that banned Catalan-language publishing for years. His eventual collected works ran to 47 volumes.
