The Luxembourg 2005 standard 2 euro coin features the effigy of His Royal Highness Grand Duke Henri on the national side. Designed by Yvette Gastauer-Claire, the portrait captures the profile of the Grand Duke facing towards the right, symbolising the continuity of the constitutional monarchy that remains central to the nation’s identity. The design includes the name of the country, LËTZEBUERG, and the year of issue, which are positioned alongside the royal portrait. This motif serves as the definitive representation of the Grand Duchy within the eurozone, reflecting the country's historical sovereignty and its role as a founding member of the European Union. The coin was issued in 2005 with a mintage of 3,500,000 pieces.
