| Reverse description | The mythological figure of Europa, depicted in classical style, is seated upon a bull in the center of the field, referencing the Greek myth symbolizing the origins of European civilization. A relief map of Belgium occupies the background, providing a national context to the broader European theme. The Latin legend 'PAX IN EUROPA' encircles the composition, commemorating seventy years of peace in Europe since the end of World War II in 1945. The overall design combines allegorical and cartographic elements in a refined engraved style characteristic of Belgian commemorative issues. |
