Andorra Coin List

Andorra, a small principality nestled in the Pyrenees, has a unique and fascinating numismatic history. Over the centuries, this country has undergone several changes in its monetary system, reflecting its complex relationship with neighboring nations and its search for economic identity.

Current currency in circulation

Since 2014, Andorra has officially used the euro as its currency. Although not a member of the European Union, the principality reached an agreement with the EU to mint its own euro coins, which feature unique designs on the reverse, reflecting Andorran culture and history. Andorran euro coins are highly prized among collectors due to their low mintage and distinctive designs.

Predecessor monetary history

Prior to the adoption of the euro, Andorra had no official currency of its own. Historically, the principality used the currencies of its neighbors: the French franc and the Spanish peseta. This monetary duality reflected the shared influence of France and Spain on the country. An important milestone in Andorran numismatics was the issuance of commemorative diners starting in 1977, which, although not legal tender, served as a symbol of national identity and attracted the interest of collectors from around the world.
