| Additional information |
Henri I Dominique Clody was a Frankish chieftain whose connection to Luxembourg rests on his role as an ancestor of the House of Luxembourg — the medieval dynasty that produced four Holy Roman Emperors between the 13th and 15th centuries. This coin is part of Luxembourg's ongoing commemorative series tracing the grand duchy's dynastic roots back through the Carolingian and Merovingian periods, a genealogical project in numismatic form that the mint has issued annually for collector markets rather than general circulation.
