| Description : The commemorative coin shows Grand Duke Henri together with Grand
Duchess Maria Teresa Mestre. Below the portraits is the two‐line inscription in French "15e anniversaire de l'accession
au trône de S.A.R. le Grand‐Duc" (15th anniversary of the accession to the throne of H.R.H. the Grand Duke). S.A.R.
is the abbreviation for the French form of address Son Altesse Royale (His Royal Highness). The country of issue
"Luxembourg" is also designated in French in the upper right (instead of as Lëtzebuerg in the national language
Luxembourgish). Above this, the year of accession to the throne is named "2000", and below that the year of issue "2015".
The coin, which is based on a design concept of the Banque Centrale du Luxembourg - BCL (Luxembourg Central Bank),
is produced using the MPI (Minted Photo Image) minting technique by the Dutch mint
Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt in Utrecht, whose mint mark, a staff of Hermes, appears at the bottom right next to the
sails of the three‐masted clipper Nederland the logo of mint master Maarten Brouwer. |
