Andorran stamp with mirror

Last year I got my first stamp from Andorra.

Andorra is a country in the Pyrenees bordered by France and Spain. The capital of Andorra is Andorra la Vella. In Andorra are two different postal administrations. These two are the French Post and the Spanish Post. My stamp was issued by the French Post.

EUROPA (issued 07-05-2010)

It is a great stamp, because on it is a little mirror.
