| Reverse description | The Belgian lion rampant occupies the central field, depicted in bold relief facing left with raised forepaws, an open mouth, and a sinuous tail curling above its back, closely following the heraldic Lion of Belgium. The denomination 20 Cs. is inscribed at the bottom of the field, flanked by two five-pointed stars. The national motto L'UNION FAIT LA FORCE arcs around the upper portion of the legend within a raised inner circle, while a dentilated border frames the entire reverse. |
