[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 1407766, member: 39"]Hmm, keep in mind that "the Germans" lived in a bunch of separate countries then. Some were on the French side, others were not.

I got this coin a few days ago; Luxembourg's issue in the "10 Years Euro Cash" series. Not my photo as I am lousy and lazy :) when it comes to photographing coins; this is from the EC website. Unlike the other pieces of that series, the LU coin has a latent image in the center, as they want to have the grand duke on each coin from Luxembourg.
