| Beschrijving keerzijde | Armored bust of Emperor Charles V (Carolus V) facing right, depicted with a full beard and wearing a crown imperial. A lion's head decorates the pauldron at his shoulder, and the collar and badge of the Order of the Golden Fleece are visible on his chest, rendered in fine relief. The circumferential legend in Latin identifies the emperor by his principal titles, reading CAROLUS ● DG ● ROM ● IMP ● HISPREX ● DVX ● BVRGCF. The portrait is executed in a Renaissance-inspired style befitting the historical subject. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles V — known in the Low Countries as Carolus — was born in Ghent in 1500 and ruled the Habsburg Netherlands as its native son before inheriting Spain, the Holy Roman Empire, and vast American territories. Belgium has long claimed him as a point of civic pride, and the Royal Mint has returned to him repeatedly across commemorative programs. The 2021 issue falls within a broader Belgian series tying royal and historical figures to the nation's self-image.
He abdicated in Brussels in 1555, the first European monarch to voluntarily surrender power — an act conducted in the very hall of the Coudenberg Palace.
