This specimen was lot 1365 in Stephen Album sale 30 (Santa Rosa, CA, January 2018), where it sold for $188. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "LUXEMBOURG: Willem III, 1849-1890, AE 10 centimes, 1889, ESSAI, never issued for general circulation, hairlined surfaces, NGC graded MS65 BR." Luxembourg was part of the Austrian Netherlands during most of the eighteenth century and was part of revolutionary and Napoleonic [[France]] during 1797-1815. At the Congress of Vienna, the duchy was awarded to the king of the [[Netherlands]]. In 1830, most of the duchy joined the new state of [[Belgium]] but a sliver remained part of the Netherlands and was under Dutch rule until the death of William III in 1890. His heir was queen Wilhelmina who, being female, was disqualified to be duchess of Luxembourg. Another princeling was found to become grand duke and Luxembourg assumed her current status as an independent state. During the Dutch period, few coins were issued specifically for Luxembourg; five centimes were issued for circulation 1854-55, 1860, 1865, 1870. This type, along with the accompanying [[Luxembourg 1889 5 centimes|five centimes]], is a pattern.
