| Obverse description | The central field depicts a composite scene representing the merged municipality of Bornem: the old city hall building at centre, a large heron (Great White Egret) standing to the left, two fish swimming in the foreground, and the domed orangery of D'Ursel Castle of Hingene to the right. The four constituent communes are named in the surrounding legend. |
