| Obverse description | The obverse features the quartered coat of arms of Andorra at center, displaying the heraldic emblems of the four co-princes — the Bishop of Urgell, the Count of Foix, the King of Aragon, and the Viscount of Béarn — rendered in fine relief within an elaborate baroque cartouche surmounted by a crested helm. A scroll beneath the shield bears the national motto VIRTVS VNITA FORTIOR. The surrounding circular legend, separated by ornamental stops, reads JOAN D.M. BISBE D'URGELL I PRINCEP D'ANDORRA, identifying Joan Martí i Alanis, Bishop of Urgell and Co-Prince of Andorra. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-length standing figure in the center of the field, depicted in a classicizing style reminiscent of Romanesque sculpture, draped in a flowing robe and appearing to hold an object before the body. The denomination 5 appears to the left of the figure and the abbreviation D to the right. The circular legend around the periphery, separated by interpuncts, reads II CONGRÉS INTERNACIONAL DE LA LLENGUA CATALANA, commemorating the Second International Congress of the Catalan Language, with the date 1986 inscribed at the lower border. |
