The first coins issued were the 2½, 5 and 10
centimes.But soon the bronze 5 and 10 centimes pieces were replaced by
cupro-nickel coins. In 1915-1916, zinc 5, 10 and 25 centimes coins were
issued by the occupying German force and after the First World War, iron
coins were issued in the same denominations before cupro-nickel was
reintroduced in 1924, along with nickel 1 and 2 francs coins.
In 1929, Luxembourg's first silver coins 5 and 10 francs were issued. Bronze 5, 10
