The unique series of Andorran coins with a denomination of 1.25 euros began in 2021. The set includes 2 coins with a face value of 1.25 euros.
The first coin is dedicated to the capercaillie. The capercaillie or grouse is a large bird from the pheasant family. The name “grouse” is due to the well-known characteristic of the mating male, which loses sensitivity and vigilance, which is often used by hunters.
