New national side of euro circulation coins

(2006/C 20/10)

National side of the new 2-euro commemorative circulation coin issued by Luxembourg

Euro circulation coins have legal tender status throughout the euro area. The Commission publishes all
new euro coin designs (1) with a view to informing anyone required to handle coins in the course of their
work and the public at large. In accordance with the Council conclusions of 8 December 2003 (2), Member
States and countries that have concluded a Monetary Agreement with the Community providing for the
issuance of euro circulation coins are allowed to issue certain quantities of commemorative euro circulation
coins on condition that not more than one new coin design is issued per country per year and that only
the 2 EUR denomination is used. These coins have the technical features of normal euro circulation coins,
but bear a commemorative design on the obverse national side.

Issuing State: Luxembourg

Subject of commemoration: 25th birthday of the heir to the throne, The Grand-Duke Guillaume

Factual description of the design: The coin depicts on the left-hand side of the inner part the effigy of
His Royal Highness, The Grand-Duke Henri looking to the right, superimposed on the effigy of the heredi-
tary Grand-Duke Guillaume, on the right-hand side of the inner part. The date 2006 appears below both
effigies, flanked by the letter ‘S’ and the logo of the Mint. The word ‘LËTZEBUERG’ appears above the effi-
gies along the upper edge of the inner part of the coin. The 12 stars surround the design on the outer ring
of the coin.

Issue volume: 1.1 million coins

Approximate issue period: January 2006

Edge lettering: 2 **, repeated six times, alternately upright and inverted
