The Luxembourg €2 circulation coin carries a portrait of Grand Duke Henri (* 1955), Grand Duke since 7 October 2000, in profile. The country name in Luxembourgish (Lëtzebuerg) identifies the issuing state.
Henri, born in 1955, ascended the throne in 2000 after his father Jean's abdication and reigned until he himself abdicated in favour of his son Guillaume in 2025. Luxembourg is the world's only remaining sovereign grand duchy, its ruling house closely tied to the House of Nassau since the 19th century. The inscription "Lëtzebuerg" deliberately uses Luxembourgish rather than French or German, underscoring the country's distinct national identity.
