Product Description

The 2019 Andorran 2 Euro coin '600 years of Parliament of Andorra' (also known as the Council of the Land) is the second 2 Euro coin that Andorra issued in 2019. The Council of the Land (Consell de la Terra) was established in 1419 to address all the problems in the parishes of Andorra. Andorra has 7 parishes that all consist of a number of villages. Almost every parish has its own holiday. The parishes also have their own folk festivals that usually last 2 days! Tax policy differs from parish to parish in Andorra, something that is often unthinkable in other countries. Elections are held every 4 years in Andorra and 2 members are elected per parish. These 14 members form half of the parliament of Andorra. The Andorran Parliament consists of 28 seats, the other half (14) of which are elected through a system of proportional representation. On the face of the coin a number of people who represent part of the parliament are depicted. In the centre is the Andorran coat of arms. In an arc is the text '600 ANYS DEL CONSELL DE LA TERRA' (600 years Parliament of Andorra). The country name ANDORRA is also displayed. At the bottom of the coin are the dates 1419 and 2019. The c oin is packed in a printed coin holder.
