| Obverse description | Stylised effigy of Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg in right-facing profile, rendered in a geometric, faceted artistic style within a circular inner border occupying the right half of the field. A vertical line divides the field, with the country name LËTZEBUERG inscribed vertically to the left of the effigy alongside the date 2014. The design, by engraver Yvette Gastauer, employs bold angular planes to convey the portrait in a distinctly modern idiom. |
