| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized panoramic cityscape of the historic centre of Bruges, rendered in a modern graphic style with horizontal line work evoking the city's canals, medieval bridges, and characteristic stepped-gable architecture. To the left, the numeral '20' is incorporated as a design element with a prominent stepped-gable building filling its interior, accompanied by the inscription 'YEARS HISTORICAL BRUGES' below. The right portion of the field depicts the iconic Belfry tower of Bruges rising above the canal-side skyline, with stylized water waves occupying the lower register. The composition commemorates the twentieth anniversary of the inscription of the Historic Centre of Bruges on the UNESCO World Heritage List. |
