Additional information

Henri I, Count of Luxembourg, secured the county's dynastic future in 1226 by arranging the marriage of his daughter Ermesinde — who had already inherited the title — into a line that would consolidate Luxembourgish territorial holdings for generations. This coin is part of the Banque centrale du Luxembourg's ongoing gold commemorative program, which has issued small-format .999 fine pieces in limited quantities since the mid-2010s, targeting collectors rather than circulation.

The 3.11 g specification is a deliberate tenth-ounce equivalent, aligning the piece with internationally recognized bullion fractions despite its nominal face value.
