| Comments |
Designed and printed in New York while Luxembourg was still under German occupation, this series was prepared in anticipation of liberation — part of a broader Allied effort to supply newly freed territories with ready currency before local institutions could resume normal function. The plates were engraved by ABNCo, whose work for European governments-in-exile during the war years constitutes a quietly significant chapter in wartime monetary logistics.
The issue date range runs to 1953, reflecting extended use well into the postwar period rather than any reissue or revision of the design.
