| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a modern commercial jet aircraft in high relief, rendered in a clean, three-dimensional style against a mirror-polished field on the left side, evoking open sky. To the right, a stylised topographic map of the Netherlands and surrounding region is shown in a granular, textured relief, with a vintage biplane silhouette integrated within the landscape, symbolising a century of Dutch aviation history. The curved legend 100 JAAR NEDERLANDSE LUCHTVAART arcs along the upper inner rim, while the denomination 5 EURO, the date 2019, and the Utrecht mint mark along with quality and privy marks appear along the lower exergue. |

Issued as part of the Dutch "Vijfje" series, which has served as the Netherlands' primary silver commemorative denomination since the early 1990s. The 2019 aviation theme marked the centenary of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, founded in October 1919 — making it the oldest continuously operating airline in the world still flying under its original name.
