| Reverse description | Central design depicts a puddler (known in Luxembourgish as a 'Feierstëppler') engaged at work, serving as a celebrated symbol of Luxembourg's historic steel industry. In the background, blast furnaces are rendered in low relief, evoking the industrial landscape of the country. The face value '5 FRANG' appears in the legend in Luxembourgish, with the date '1942' positioned in the exergue or lower field. The composition reflects the nationalist and industrial iconography characteristic of mid-20th century Luxembourgish coinage designs. |
