| Obverse description | The crowned coat of arms of Andorra is depicted in relief to the left of the field, featuring the quartered shield with the episcopal mitre and crozier, the striped arms of Urgell, the Catalan bars, and the three pales of Foix surmounted by the bears of Béarn. To the right, a five-line Latin legend identifies the co-prince, with the denomination '5 D.' and date '1994' inscribed in the lower portion of the field. The design is executed in a clean, bold relief against a mirror-polished proof field. |

| Reverse description | A naturalistic, high-relief effigy of a red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) is depicted seated upright in the centre-right of the field, holding a nut to its mouth with both forepaws, its bushy tail raised behind. A small thistle plant appears at the base of the design. A curved crescent-shaped band along the left and upper periphery of the field bears the Catalan-language legend in relief. The reverse field is mirror-polished, contrasting with the finely detailed matte relief of the squirrel motif. |
