Usage date in Luxembourg

I appreciate the effort of adding this information. But I feel that it is more appropriate in the new succession box, like the one in German Mark. The reason for that is things written in the infobox are basically a list, therefore 1-dimensional. However, usage could transcends time and space, which is 2 dimensional. And the succession box represent this information in a better way.

Btw, the article said "1935-2002" for Luxembourg, but the article of Luxembourgish franc says the two francs are equal only since 1944. I'm not sure which one is correct. --Chochopk 02:44, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Luxembourgish franc article is correct.

In 1921 : Economical treaty of union between Belgium and Luxembourg. In 1935 (23 mai), a monetary convention between the two countries with a parity 1:1 of both monetary units (for the fifty years : Belgian 2 euro commemorative coin). Flafla89 18:50, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From the Luxembourgish franc article :

1854-1865 : 1 LUF = 1 BEF
1865-1921-1926 : Latin Monetary Union, 1 LUF = 1 BEF
1926-1935 : BLEU : 1 LUF = 1 BEF
1935-1940 : 1 LUF = 1,25 BEF
1940-1944 : use of Reichsmark in Luxembourg
1944-1999 : 1 LUF = 1 BEF
1999- : Euro

Belgia

Should it not be noted that all Belgian Francs were produced in two different language versions (French, Belgique and Dutch, België) until the Euro which does not have Belgium written on it at all. Before a date (which I do not know) all Belgian Francs were in French; Luxembourg Francs were both in French and Luxembourgise
