Lettering: LETZEBURG ("Luxembourg") 1952. The 1952 Luxembourg 1 Franc issued by the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a classic example of the post-WWII "Iron and Coal Community" era design. “Feierstëppler” refers to a person who pokes around in a fire. "Puddling" or is the process of heating iron or steel in a puddling furnace and then stirring (or poking) the metal with a tool, often a hammer. In this way, the metal was cleaned and the process resulted in a homogeneous block of bar iron. The puddler played an important role in transforming the metal, preparing it for the next production steps. This was essential for 1952, Luxembourg as a founding member of the European Coal and Steel Community. Dimensions: Cupro-Nickel. 21 mm. 4 g. Pickup category timeslot {A}
