The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

@Ian Afloat, it may be a problem with your browser. ALSA's site, and particularly it's calendar doesn't like auto-translated numerals. Once you have identified all your necessaries use the Spanish language site to make your booking.
Or just buy your ticket at the bus station or even on the bus. Unless you are planning to travel on a peak holiday weekend or at the end of a University term there will rarely be any need to book more than an hour or two ahead of your journey.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

I have walked the Camino Francis 7 times, twice in 2017 and 2018. (2019)
Hello,
I’ve been trying to book buses on ALSA’s website and it keeps on failing to complete the transaction: just getting a turning circle after I put in the card details. Is this a common problem or should I buy a tin foil hat?
Yes that happened to me yesterday. I ended up buying my ticket for more money on another website.
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.
