| Description : In 1985 in Andorra 18 became the age of majority with the
associated political rights for men and women. The coin, designed by the Italian designer Orietta Rossi, depicts a
young person voting and inserting the ballot marked "ANDORRA" into the ballot box. At the top of the coin are the years
"1985" and "2015". The inscription around the outside of the motif reads "30è ANIVERSARI MAJORIA D'EDAT ALS
18 ANYS" (30th anniversary of 18 becoming the legal age). Andorran coins are minted alternately in the countries
of the Princes of Andorra; in 2015 it was the turn of the Monnaie de Paris in Pessac. Due to organisational problems
the coin could not be issued until 2016. |
