The Luxembourg 2007 standard 2 euro coin features the effigy of His Royal Highness Grand Duke Henri, who has served as the head of state since 2000. Designed by Yvette Gastauer-Claire, the portrait is positioned on the left side of the inner disc, facing towards the right. The name of the Grand Duke is inscribed along the edge, accompanied by the word LËTZEBUERG and the year of issue. This design reflects the constitutional monarchy that remains central to the national identity and political structure of the Grand Duchy. The twelve stars of the European Union encircle the design on the outer ring, symbolising the unity and cooperation of the member states. This standard issue coin was produced with a mintage of 4,000,000 pieces in 2007.
