The Luxembourg 2018 2 euro standard circulation coin features the effigy of His Royal Highness Grand Duke Henri on the national side. This portrait, which is a recurring design element on the country's coinage, symbolises the constitutional monarchy and the continuity of the Luxembourgish state. Positioned to the right of the monarch’s profile, the name of the country, LËTZEBUERG, is inscribed alongside the year of issue. The design serves as a formal representation of the Grand Duke, who has served as the head of state since 2000. Surrounding the portrait are the twelve stars of the European Union, reflecting the nation's integration and commitment to the eurozone. This standard issue was produced in 2018.
