| Beschrijving voorzijde | The nickel-brass centre features two overlapping effigies: in the foreground, a contemporary right-facing portrait of Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg, and behind him to the left, a historical bust of Guillaume I (William I) in military uniform with decorations, facing slightly right. The inscription 'GUILLAUME 1er' and the dates '1772-1843' appear vertically in the upper field, while the year '2018' is placed centrally below the portraits. The legend 'LUXEMBOURG' runs along the lower portion of the inner ring. The outer copper-nickel ring bears the twelve stars of the European Union. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the centenary of Luxembourg's independence from the Dutch crown following the First World War, this coin commemorates both Grand Duke Henri and his ancestor William I, under whose rule Luxembourg gained its current borders through the 1839 Treaty of London. That treaty, which resolved the Belgian Revolution's territorial aftermath, reduced Luxembourg's territory by more than half — ceding the larger French-speaking portion to Belgium — while simultaneously confirming the remainder as a fully sovereign grand duchy under the House of Orange-Nassau.
William I himself reportedly resented the settlement.
