Obverse description At center, a map of the European Union enclosed within a circular frame, rendered in high relief against a geometrically stylized field featuring diagonal and intersecting panels evoking a Baroque compositional aesthetic. A vertical column of twelve stars to the left alludes to the European Union emblem. The denomination '10 EURO' and date '2018' appear in the right field. The trilingual country name legend 'BELGIQUE', 'BELGIE', and 'BELGIEN' arcs around the upper periphery, with the engraver's initials 'LL' and the quality mark privy below the denomination.

Additional information

Issued to mark the 441st anniversary of Rubens's birth — an oddly specific occasion that reflects Belgium's longstanding habit of honoring the painter on numerically unconventional milestones rather than waiting for round numbers. The Royal Belgian Mint has returned to Rubens repeatedly across decades of commemorative programs, making him one of the most minted figures in Belgian numismatic history.
