Comment

Part of the proof set "Great Jubilee of the year 2000"
The Great Jubilee in 2000 was a major event in the Roman Catholic Church, held from Christmas Eve (December 24) 1999 to Epiphany (January 6) 2001. Like other previous Jubilee years, it was a celebration of the mercy of God and forgiveness of sins.

Interesting fact

The obverse of the coin depicts a scene from the Slaughter of the Innocents, a painting by Joan Martí i Alanis, a prominent Andorran artist. The painting is a powerful representation of the biblical story of King Herod's order to kill all male children in Bethlehem in an attempt to kill the newborn Jesus. The coin's design serves as a poignant reminder of the tragic event and its impact on human history.
