Luxembourgish euro coins feature three different designs, though they all contain the portrait or effigy of Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg. The designs, by Yvette Gastauer-Claire, also contain the 12 stars of the European flag, the year of imprint and the name of the country in the Luxembourgish language: Lëtzebuerg.
The Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg appears on the coins facing to the left. [1] As he only became Grand Duke in 2000 following the abdication of his father, Jean, Henri was not featured on the Luxembourg franc, with the exception of a 500 francs commemorative coin minted in 7,500 copies to commemorate his accession to the throne. [2] Jean's portrait on the francs showed him facing to the right, and it is common in a number of countries for successive monarchs to alternate the direction they faced on coins.
With Grand Duke Henri due to abdicate on 3 October 2025, his effigy will be replaced by that of his successor, Guillaume, in 2026. [3]
