2012 Luxembourg 2€ — Death of William IV

The Luxembourg 2012 2 euro commemorative coin marks the centenary of the death of Grand Duke William IV. The national side features a dual portrait of Grand Duke Henri and the late Grand Duke William IV, positioned to reflect the continuity of the Luxembourgish monarchy. William IV reigned from 1905 until his death in 1912, a period marked by significant constitutional developments and the transition of the House of Nassau-Weilburg. His legacy remains central to the national identity, symbolised here by the juxtaposition of the current sovereign with his predecessor to represent the enduring stability of the Grand Duchy. The design is completed by the inscription of their names and the year of the anniversary. This coin was issued in 2012.
