2½ Euros Streetart

Belgium's 2½ euro denomination has no role in everyday commerce — it exists purely as a collector vehicle, a technicality that lets the Royal Belgian Mint issue themed pieces outside the constraints governing standard euro circulation coinage. This "Streetart" release continues a run of culturally themed 2½ euro pieces the mint has used to spotlight Belgian creative identity, a country that has produced an outsized number of internationally recognized graphic artists relative to its population.
