Obverse description The quartered coat of arms of Andorra, surmounted by a royal crown, is depicted to the left of the field. The shield displays the traditional four quarters including the bishop's mitre and cross, vertical bars, and bulls. A five-line inscription in the right field identifies the co-prince Joan D.M. as Bishop of Urgell and Prince of Andorra. The denomination '50 D.' and the date '1992' are inscribed in large characters beneath the coat of arms.

Reverse description A finely detailed high-relief depiction of an adult brown bear and its cub occupies the central and right portions of the field, set against a naturalistic mountain landscape featuring stylized conifer trees. The adult bear is shown facing left in a seated posture, with the smaller cub positioned in the foreground at lower left. A crescent-shaped panel to the left carries the Catalan legend in raised letters. The overall composition conveys the wildlife heritage of the Pyrenean region.
