Product Description

In 1866, the landowner Gilien de Plandolit Y d'Areno began the movement called the new reform. Andorra is one of the oldest states in Europe and is officially run by the President of France and the Bishop of Seu d'Urgell. On April 14 1866, Bishop Josep Cashal Y Estradez approved the Andorran Constitution. This constitution was adopted on May 31 1866. In 1869 the Andorran Constitution was ratified by the French King Napoleon III. According to the Constitution, the General Council of Andorra consists of 24 members. To commemorate the adoption of its constitution in 1866, Andorra issued a special coin of 2 Euro 150 years later in 2016. On the coin you will see the parliament's chamber. This council room is in the Casa de la Vall. The Casa de la Vall is on the 1 Euro coin of Andorra. At the top of the coin is the text 150 Anys de la Nova Reforma of 1866 (150 years since the reformation of 1866). Under the text we see the year 2016. At the bottom of the coin is the name of the country Andorra. The coin is presente d in a luxury numbered package with an image of the back of a parliament memberÆs head with its characteristic headgear.
