A new coin.
The 1998 Andorra 10 Dinars silver coin honors Georg Friedrich Handel (1685–1759), one of the greatest Baroque composers whose music continues to inspire centuries later. Struck in proof quality and graded PCGS PR69DCAM, it displays brilliant mirror fields and frosted reliefs of near-perfect preservation. The obverse presents a finely detailed portrait of Handel, framed by his full name and life dates. To the left, musical notes symbolize his famous compositions, while on the right rises the dome of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, where the composer was laid to rest. This combination reflects both his artistic genius and his deep connection to England, where he created masterpieces such as Messiah and the Water Music. The reverse displays the crowned coat of arms of Andorra, quartered with the mitre and staff, Catalonia stripes, Foix pallets, and Béarn cows, surrounded by the inscription “JOAN D.M. BISBE D’URGELL I PRINCEP D’ANDORRA”. Below appear the denomination 10 D. ECU and the year 1998. A culturally rich coin uniting Andorran heraldry with European musical heritage, it is a jewel for collectors of silver proofs, music-themed numismatics, and historical personalities.
