The Luxembourg 2011 2 euro standard circulation coin features the effigy of Grand Duke Henri, who has served as the head of state since 2000. Designed by Yvette Gastauer-Claire, the portrait captures the Grand Duke in profile, facing towards the right. This design serves as a permanent symbol of the constitutional monarchy, reflecting the nation's historical continuity and the role of the Grand Ducal family in Luxembourgish identity. The national side also incorporates the name of the country, LËTZEBUERG, alongside the year of issue, encircled by the twelve stars of the European Union. This standard issue was minted in 2011 with a total mintage of 2,320,000 pieces.
