| Beschrijving keerzijde | A finely detailed bust portrait of actress Audrey Hepburn occupies the right portion of the field, depicting her with her characteristic upswept chignon hairstyle, delicate facial features, pearl-and-brooch necklace, and a sleeveless dress. A bold vertical panel to the left of the portrait bears the legend 'AUDREY HEPBURN' in uppercase letters running vertically. Below the vertical panel, the inscription '4 MAY 1929' records her date of birth in two lines, rendered in a geometric sans-serif typeface. The composition evokes a cinematic, art-directed aesthetic consistent with commemorative portraiture of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Belgium's commemorative gold program has issued coins honoring figures with tenuous Belgian connections, but Hepburn's claim is legitimate: she was born in Ixelles, Brussels in 1929, and spent part of her wartime childhood in Arnhem under Nazi occupation — a period she later credited with shaping her decades of humanitarian work for UNICEF. The Royal Belgian Mint issued this piece as part of a broader series reclaiming her as a Belgian national figure, a classification she herself rarely emphasized publicly.
